Morocco and Algeria have had frosty relations for more than 40 years, and their border has been closed since 1994. Algeria severed ties with Morocco in late August over what it termed hostile actions from the Kingdom.

We spoke to Morocco’s Ambassador to Kenya Mokhtar Ghambou about the diplomatic spat.
