He affirmed the Moroccan parliament’s readiness to share experiences and expertise in legislative practices and digital transformation with Benin’s National Assembly.

In addition, Talbi Alami briefed Flavonou on the “Atlantic Initiative” launched by King Mohammed VI, which aims to facilitate access for Sahel countries to the Atlantic Ocean.
The Moroccan speaker of the House also updated his Beninese counterpart on Morocco’s advancements in renewable energy, desalination, and foreign investment, all underscoring the kingdom’s commitment to sustainable growth and regional stability.
