During their meeting, both leaders also vowed to fight together against the rising terrorism threat.

It is worth reminding that the meeting comes after a one-year-period marked by various diplomatic rows between both countries, mainly following an initial diplomatic spat that has erupted last year after that the French authorities attempted to arrest the Moroccan intelligence chief Abdellatif Hammouchi for torture charges when the latter was on a casual visit to Paris.
