RABAT (Reuters) -Morocco and Russia renewed a deal on Friday allowing Russian ships to fish in Morocco’s Atlantic waters, the Moroccan foreign ministry said.
The deal was signed by Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita and Ilya Shestakov, the head of Russia’s federal fisheries agency, in Moscow, the ministry said in a statement.
Under the four-year deal, Morocco shall determine an annual catch quota for Russian ships, it said.
