Washington – The latest report of the US State Department on the situation of human rights in Morocco “clearly contains erroneous information that shall be corrected and clarified”, former US Ambassador to Rabat Edward Gabriel said Thursday.
“It is clear that the report cites erroneous sources and information which shall be corrected and clarified”, the former US diplomat told MAP, highlighting “Morocco’s substantial achievements in terms of reforms in general and Human rights in particular.”
He underlined: “I was myself involved in preparing human rights reports for the State Department when I was ambassador to Morocco and I know how these reports can sometimes contain erroneous information citing various sources.”
Morocco, he recalled, has tirelessly endeavored throughout recent years to consolidate its achievements in human rights, in an inclusive framework, benefiting the different components of the Moroccan society, in “a robust and affirmed democratic context that deserves to be applauded.”
