Rabat – “The two visits paid HM the King to Guinea benefit the country,” said Guinean president M. Alpha Condé on Thursday during the signing ceremony of eight bilateral coopreration agreements with King Mohammed VI.
Condé, who is the current president of the AU, continued, “We strongly rely on Moroccan presence within the African Union to enhance the autonomy of the organization and to take control of African issues.”
