Marokko

Morocco is a North African country currently in the news for several reasons. Firstly, it is implicated in drug smuggling operations into Europe. Spanish police recently discovered an elaborate tunnel system originating from Morocco, apparently used for transporting hashish into Spain via Ceuta. Secondly, Morocco is involved in a dispute regarding the Africa Cup. After Senegal initially won the final, Morocco appealed, and the CAF (Confederation of African Football) awarded the match 3-0 to Morocco, leading Senegal to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). Finally, the broader context of cannabis and drug policy is relevant, though not directly about Morocco itself, it is mentioned in relation to drug trade and policy.
