France Lifts Visa Restrictions for Moroccan Citizens
PARIS (Sputnik) - Tensions between Paris and Rabat arose in October 2021, when the French government decided to halve the number of visas issued to Moroccans due to Rabat's reluctance to take back citizens who did not have the right to reside in France. The Moroccan Foreign Ministry called Paris's decision unjustified.
France will begin issuing visas to Moroccan citizens
without restrictions two years after Paris decided to halve the number of visas issued to Moroccans, French Ambassador to Morocco Christophe Lecourtier said on Monday.
"From now on, there are no longer any restrictions in terms of issuing visas by France. Any person who meets the criteria necessary to obtain a visa will receive one," Lecourtier told Moroccan radio 2M.
He added that it would take time for this "humiliation" to be forgotten. At the same time, Lecourtier said that in 2023, 80% more
visas will be issued than in the previous year.
