During a meeting with the Committee of Interior, local and regional authorities, housing and city policy at the House of Representatives, on Wednesday, Interior minister Abdelouafi Laftit revealed that steps to repatriate Moroccans stranded in Ceuta and Melilla will be taken soon. «Our objective is to repatriate all stranded nationals as soon as possible and in good conditions», he said. Last week, behind closed doors, the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defense and Moroccans Living Abroad at the House of Representatives held a meeting on the situation of Moroccans stranded abroad because of the coronavirus travel ban. «The right to return home is a natural and indisputable one. But what is obvious is not necessarily appropriate in these exceptional times», Foreign Affairs minister Nasser Bourita, who attended the meeting, told Yabiladi. While 300 Moroccans are still stranded in Melilla and are housed in tents, others in Ceuta are house by the Al-Umma Mosque and a sports facility.
