Moroccan Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch arrived in Cairo on Sunday, April 6, 2026, leading a ministerial delegation. The visit's primary purpose was to co-chair the inaugural session of the Morocco-Egypt Coordination and Follow-up Committee with his Egyptian counterpart, Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, on Monday, April 7.
The high-level meeting, the first of its kind for this bilateral mechanism, focused on enhancing cooperation across multiple sectors. Discussions reportedly covered economic and investment partnerships, trade, agriculture, and industrial collaboration, according to statements from the Moroccan government.
The establishment of this joint committee follows a period of strengthened diplomatic ties between the two North African nations. Both governments expressed a shared commitment to elevating their strategic partnership and translating agreements into concrete projects for mutual benefit.
