The Morocco Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the reopening of its consulates in Tripoli and Benghazi after nine years of closure, in addition to opening a new consulate in Miami, Florida.

The decision came after the appointments of 23 new consul generals the Moroccan foreign ministry said in a statement.

The statement, however, did not provide any details about the reopening of the Moroccan Embassy in Libya.

According to the list of appointments, Saeed Benkirane was appointed as General Consul in the city of Benghazi, and Bouzikri Al-Rihani in Tripoli.
