A major Moroccan party will make an all-out effort to ally Morocco with the Arab League, it was reported here today from Damascus.
Addressing a press conference there, Mohammed Hassa Ouzanni, general secretary of the Moroccan Independence Party, said that he would bend all his efforts toward that goal. He also expressed opposition to the emigration of Israel-bound Moroccan Jews, asserting that since “we recognize that our Jewish brothers have the rights of all citizens” there is no justification for such emigration.
