FM Tuesday in London to discuss peace and security with Miliband

Foreign Minister, Taïb Fassi Fihri, will start on Tuesday a two-day working visit to London to discuss the issues of peace and security with British peer, David Miliband, and Minister of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Bill Rammell.

   The talks are part of the ministerial dialogue forum established in 2006 between the two states and are held annually and alternately in the countries' capital cities.

   The consultations seek to reinforce bilateral relations in different areas and exchange viewpoints on regional and international issues of common interest, a statement of the Foreign ministry said on Monday.

   Fassi Fihri will hold on Wednesday a conference at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) themed "Morocco, the United Kingdom and security in the Mediterranean," the statement added.
