The Head of the Moroccan government Aziz Akhannouch will receive Rutte in Rabat upon his arrival, indicated the Dutch government in a\u00a0statement<\/a><\/strong>. The pair will discuss various topics, including migration, regional security, and multilateral cooperation.<\/p>\n

The Dutch PM will then participate in a prominent gathering of businesses to discuss ways to collaborate on green hydrogen.<\/p>\n

In addition, several agreements will be signed, underscoring collaborative efforts in line with Morocco\u2019s energy transition.<\/p>\n

During the visit, Rutte will also engage in a dialogue with students at the\u00a0Netherlands<\/strong>\u00a0Institute Morocco (NIMAR) in Rabat to discuss Morocco’s role in its region and its collaboration with Europe.<\/p>\n

Rutte\u2019s visit to Morocco is part of his trip to Africa during which he is scheduled to visit Namibia and South Africa on June 19 and 20.

Rutte\u00a0expressed\u00a0<\/strong>his enthusiasm about his trip to the three African countries, describing Africa as a \u201clarge and important continent, with enormous potential.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAfrica and Europe need each other and have a lot to offer each other,\u201d he stressed, explaining that the two continents can collaborate on climate change transition, particularly green hydrogen, the central theme of his visit.<\/p>\n
