Brief Analysis
The recent rapproachement between Morocco and Israel can be partly understood through Morocco’s long history of relations with its Jewish minority.
The recently announced rapprochement between Morocco and Israel goes back several years, especially in the economic and commercial field. The Moroccan decision to normalize relations with Israel is thus not a question of recognition itself but rather a resumption of earlier relations: with Moroccan recognition, trade with Israel could now also grow.
Most notably, the Kingdom has now acceded to an old Israeli request: the establishment of a direct air link for the transport of members of the Moroccan Jewish community and Israeli tourists to and from Morocco. The recognition of the Moroccan Sahara by the United States, in return for the normalization of diplomatic ties between Morocco and Israel, also promises economic benefits though it may raise tensions with Algeria or the Polisario.

Best things you should know before going to Morocco

A trip to Morocco cannot be missing from your Bucket List! Its varied geography, its dynamic people, its characteristic cuisine, and impressive architecture make this destination a must-visit. Here we share 9 things you should know before starting your trip to this colorful and hospitable country:
1. Dressing modestly is better
It will always be better to dress conservatively. Especially for women, it is more prudent to be as little exposed as possible, since the natives usually cover themselves from knee to elbow, and rarely do you see women dressed in something less conservative than this, except perhaps some Westerners in Marrakech. It is also good to walk with a scarf, in case you happen to visit a mosque or tour the desert.
