Morocco's opponents have suffered a further blow Thursday at the European Parliament plenary in Strasbourg by "rejecting some amendments," they tried to pass as resolution on human rights.

The annual session of the Crans Montana Forum, to be held from March 12- 14 in Dakhla, will place the economic development in the African continent at the center of its works, said Wednesday the Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO), co-organizer of this global summit.

Former Albanian President Sali Berisha said that the holding of the Crans Montana Forum in Dakhla shows the great consideration shown for the important reforms undertaken by Morocco under the leadership of HM King Mohammed VI, to boost development in the country.

Morocco's ancient history and ongoing commitment to dialogue and peace "amply justify" the choice of the city of Dakhla to host the Crans Montana Forum, said members of the Italian delegation which will take part in this Forum, organized under the patronage of HM King Mohammed VI of March 12-14.

Morocco welcomed "courageous and responsible" position by the organizers of the Crans Montana Forum (CMF) to remain attached to the holding of the annual session of the meeting March 12 through 14 in the city of Dakhla, in spite of pressures and disruption attempts they experienced.
