The 14th high-level Portuguese-Moroccan meeting took place in Lisbon recently, the first time in the last five years.  It was attended by ministerial delegations from both countries.

Morocco’s Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch hailed the nations’ ties, particularly following the recent announcement of Portugal, Spain, and Morocco’s submission to host the World Cup in 2030. The candidacy has been considered unprecedented as it will be held for the first time in countries on different continents. The prime ministers of both countries discussed bilateral relations and signed several agreements on cooperation, environment, education, and science.
