"We are attached to the quality of the French-Moroccan relations. These relations are, naturally, at the service of peace and development of the entire Euro-Mediterranean region," Bernard Valero said at a press briefing.
    The French official also described as an "important day" the 10th high-level Moroccan-French meeting, due next Friday in Paris.
    He added that the meeting, to be co-chaired by Morocco's Prime Minister Abbas El Fassi and his French peer Françcois Fillon, is part of close Moroccan-French cooperation ties grounded on long-standing, diversified closeness.
