France is looking forward to stir the stagnant waters of trade with Morocco, an indispensable partner in the Arab Maghreb, after the ties between the two sides were affected by the Western Sahara issue.

French Minister of Foreign Trade Franck Riester affirmed that the time has come to "revive the ties."

This came during a visit to the kingdom on Thursday following an earlier visit by Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné.

Morocco is also preparing to host French Minister of Economy Bruno Le Maire and Minister of Agriculture Marc Fesneau soon in April.
