La Rabat, aproape o mie de manifestanţi s-au adunat în centrul oraşului pentru a condamna "violenţele comise de Israel împotriva palestinienilor", precum şi restabilirea relaţiilor diplomatice dintre Maroc şi Israel. Fluturând steaguri palestiniene, manifestanţii au scandat: ""Palestina liberă, sioniştii afară" sau ""Oamenii vor anularea normalizării"". Normalizarea relaţiilor diplomatice cu Israelul are însă un caracter strategic, deoarece este legat de recunoaşterea de către SUA a "suveranităţii" marocane asupra teritoriului disputat al Saharei Occidentale. Sâmbătă, Marocul a trimis ajutoare umanitare în teritoriile palestiniene, a informat agenţia de ştiri MAP. Diplomaţia marocană a condamnat vineri "violenţele comise în teritoriile palestiniene ocupate" şi a reafirmat sprijinul său pentru soluţia "celor două state" în conflictul israeliano-palestinian, scrie agerpres.

With castles, you are never short of fascinating things to talk about.”Read on to find out more about 21 of the world’s most beautiful castles, fortified homes that are both a feast for the eyes and a time trip back to the bygone age during which they were created.

The castle’s vivid red-and-yellow color pattern – and its flashy clock tower – endow Pena with a much more playful air than the somber castles found elsewhere in Europe.
