- Morocco–Norway relations
-
The relations between Morocco and Norway resulted in Moroccan Ambassador to Norway (Yahdid Bouchaab) and the King of Norway meeting by appointment, on September 9, 2011.[1]
2009
The Norwegian embassy's alleged improper sheltering of 2 dual-citizenship children (of Khalid Skah and Cecilie Hopstock) during their escape in 2009, led to a diplomatic dispute between the two countries.[2][3] The children stayed at the embassy for 3 days.[4] On the following day, Norway's ambassador (Bjørn Blokhus) left Morocco.[5] One year after the incident, Moroccan authorities had not approved any new ambassador from Norway.[6]
