Rabat – King Mohammed VI welcomed on Monday the foreign ministers of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger at the Royal Palace in Rabat. The visit brought together Karamoko Jean Marie Traore, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Burkina Faso, Abdoulaye Diop, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of Mali, and Bakary Yaou Sangare, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Niger's transitional government.

In their remarks, the ministers commended the King's initiative to open Atlantic access to Sahel countries, describing it as a decisive step toward greater economic opportunity and regional integration.
