Lower House Speaker Holds Talks in Warsaw with Polish FM

Speaker of the House of Representatives (lower house), Habib El Malki, met in Warsaw on Friday with Polish Foreign Minister Jacek Czaputowicz.

The talks focused on the means to strengthen bilateral relations and develop cooperation between the two countries at regional and international organizations.

The talks also focused on diplomatic cooperation at the United Nations level, Poland's role as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council, as well as Morocco's dynamic role in international and regional organizations.

This meeting was an opportunity to highlight the distinguished relations that bind Morocco and the countries of the European Union as well as the European institutions, and which can consolidate North-South cooperation.

Speaking on this occasion, El Malki shed light on the role of the House of Representatives in particular and the Moroccan Parliament in general in supporting and accompanying the action of the official diplomacy on national and international issues, stressing that parliamentary diplomacy is an essential tool to defend the just causes of Morocco, to make known the dynamics of the development witnessed by the Kingdom and its contribution to the development of Africa as well as its action to promote regional and international security and stability.

For his part, the Polish minister expressed the wish of his country to take advantage of Morocco's experience in organizing a world-wide event, namely the twenty-second session of the Conference of the Parties (COP 22) held in 2016 in Marrakech, as his country prepares to host the COP 24 scheduled for next December in Katowice (South).

The Polish top-diplomat said that his country will spare no effort to develop relations between Warsaw and Rabat, noting that the two countries enjoy a distinguished international and regional reputation, thanks to their sustained efforts to address the challenges the world is currently facing.

During his visit to Poland, El Malki held talks on Thursday with the speakers of the two houses of the Polish parliament.

The Lower House Speaker also met with the Polish president's chief of staff, Krzysztof Szczerski.
