He reiterated that Hamas should accept the proposal without further delay.” The Secretary conveyed his gratitude to King Mohammed VI for Morocco’s humanitarian contributions to Gaza and underscored the importance of supporting this proposal as a means of building a more integrated, peaceful, and stable Middle East region. Secretary Blinken and Foreign Minister Bourita agreed on the importance of continuing to coordinate closely to advance peace and security in the region.
