Morocco and Spain have announced they have turned a new page in relations - after Madrid pledged support for Morocco's autonomy plan for the disputed Western Sahara.
During a meeting in Rabat, King Mohammed and the Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said they were willing to usher in a new phase, "based on mutual respect, mutual trust, permanent consultation and frank and faithful co-operation".
In a statement, Mr Sanchez reaffirmed the autonomy plan as a realistic option for Western Sahara.
Morocco considers the former Spanish colony its own.
But the Algeria-backed Polisario Front wants to establish its own state.
