Quoted Sunday by the Panamanian newspaper "La Estrella," Mr. Nunez Fabrega said that the Moroccan autonomy plan for the southern provinces is "an initiative that should be addressed by the parties in a spirit of openness, pragmatism and realism ".

"The settlement of the conflict over the Sahara is an urgent demand by the international community," as the instability in the Sahel-Saharan region constitutes a "threat" to all the countries in the region, Panamanian Foreign Minister added.

In addition, the Panamanian minister said that "Morocco, which has made democratic advances, stands out as a model for other Arab countries," expressing his country's willingness to conclude with the Kingdom cooperation agreements in the "agricultural, trade and port fields and in the fight against terrorism."
