Deputy Prime Minister and Commander of the National Guard Crown Prince Abdullah bin Abdulaziz arrived in Casablanca yesterday, and was received by King of Morocco Mohammed VI, with whom he held extensive talks to discuss international developments, notably the need to hold the Arab Summit as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, as part of the effort to hold the 16th Arab Summit, Minister of Foreign Affairs Prince Saud Al-Faisal arrived today in Rabat to have talks with senior Moroccan officials.
