In this context, the President of the Palestinian National Library emphasized that the agreement “strengthens Morocco\u2019s continued efforts, under the leadership of HM King Mohammed VI, Chairman of the Al-Quds Committee, to support Palestinians across various sectors and reflects the Kingdom\u2019s dedication to upholding the rights of Moroccans in this land,” affirming “the library\u2019s commitment to preserving and providing access to all documents that represent and safeguard these rights.”<\/p>\n
In his statement, Ghazawi praised the “exemplary partnership between the Palestinian Ministry of Culture and the Kingdom of Morocco.” He highlighted that this partnership is reflected in the ongoing presence of Palestinian culture and intellectuals in Morocco, demonstrating the Kingdom’s unwavering commitment\u2014under the leadership of His Majesty, preserving the Arab and Islamic identity of the Holy City. He also acknowledged the remarkable efforts of the Bayt Mal Al-Quds Asharif Agency.”<\/p>\n
For his part, the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Morocco to Palestine emphasized “the strong Moroccan-Palestinian relations across various fields.” He recalled “the deep-rooted spiritual and social ties that have long united the two brotherly peoples, highlighting Morocco\u2019s commitment to preserving and strengthening these bonds.” He further stressed that “this dedication aligns with the high priority given to the Palestinian cause by HM King Mohammed VI, Chairman of the Al-Quds Committee, as well as a constant in the Kingdom\u2019s foreign policy.”<\/p>\n
