The Arab Weekly – Morocco set to join African Union

“It was about time Morocco re­integrated the African Union. Mo­rocco has a will to set up an African diplomacy on economic, security and political levels. This necessar­ily requires an activism within the AU,” said Mountacir Zian, director-general of the Rabat-based Medi­terranean Company of Analysis and Strategic Intelligence.
The 28 signatories welcomed Mo­rocco’s call to retake its AU seat. Egypt, Mauritania and Tunisia ab­stained from signing the motion.
“I believe that Africa, particu­larly the AU, must make a choice: either to rely on strong and credible partners which can bring an added value to the continent or persist in supporting an entity that poses a real security and political problem on the Maghreb level and to some extent Africa,” Zian said.
