Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked expressed Israel's first-ever public support of Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara on Tuesday while on a trip to the kingdom for a series of meetings with officials. 

The Israeli Foreign Ministry stressed that the meeting reflected the two countries' commitment to renewing official ties. Although Morocco has a diplomatic office in Israel, it has not yet opened an official embassy. Israel's official recognition of Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara is expected to bring about progress in the matter.
