The former Moroccan Prime Minister, Saad-Eddine El Othmani, denied the authenticity of what was stated in a video clip, concerning a call from one of the King's advisors to him following the signing of the tripartite agreement in 2020, in the wake of a statement issued by the Reform and Unity Movement rejecting normalization with Israel.
El Othmani said, in a clarification post he published, that he received the video clip in which a journalist referred to him, stating that one of the King's advisors called him, according to his account, in order to direct abusive language towards the party. El Othmani clarified that what was stated in the video is "baseless" and "a pure fabrication," emphasizing that he had never heard any abusive language from any royal advisor, whether directed at him personally, at the party, or at anyone else. The former Prime Minister added that his relationship with the King's advisors has always been, in his words, based on "mutual respect and a spirit of cooperation."
