“Tomorrow I will fly to Morocco to represent Israel at the opening of our representative office in Rabat,” TASS quoted Lapid as quoted by the press service of the Israeli Foreign Ministry.

He noted that his visit will be a continuation of the long-standing friendship and close ties between the Jewish community of Morocco and a large number of Israelis with Moroccan roots.

On January 16, it was reported that former US President Donald Trump received the highest award of Morocco for his participation in the settlement of relations between the kingdom and Israel.
