The Maghreb Arabe Presse cites a new Atlantic Council issue brief, Morocco’s Emergence as a Gateway to Business in Africa:
“The United States should partner with Morocco to speed and deepen the reform process in Morocco, while also benefiting from the country’s compelling advantages that position it to help the United States and its businesses expand their own engagement with the African continent,” underlines the study, carried out by Peter Pham, Director of the Africa Center and Ricardo René Larémont, non-resident member of the Center and Professor of Political sciences and sociology at Binghamton University.
According to the authors, Morocco is a “long-standing US ally and a burgeoning regional power on a critical continent.”
