Members of both houses of Morocco’s parliament met in the capital Rabat for a joint session in response to the non-binding European text adopted on Thursday.
In a statement after their session, the Moroccan legislators called the European resolution “an unacceptable attack against the sovereignty, dignity and independence of judicial institutions in the kingdom.”
They said it had “seriously harmed the fundamental trust” between them.
As a result, Morocco’s Parliament “decided to reconsider its relations with the European Parliament and submit them for an overall evaluation,” according to Rachid Talbi Alami, speaker of the House of Representatives
