Morocco and the United States signed a bilateral Enhanced Immunities Agreement, a move that further highlights the close Moroccan-American ties. The deal was sealed during a video teleconference co-chaired by foreign minister Nasser Bourita and Secretary of State Michael Pompeo. Through this agreement “we have shown the high level of trust between our two countries,” said Bourita. The agreement will further facilitate the mission of consular services of the two countries and shows the willingness of Rabat and Washington to “update” international diplomatic law. In 1786, Morocco and the US established diplomatic ties.
