RABAT — King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain have started Wednesday a two-day official visit in Morocco.

The couple, guests of King Mohammed VI, have been greeted by the Moroccan royal family upon the arrival at Rabat airport before heading to the royal palace for an official ceremony.

Moroccan authorities said the two kings would use the visit to sign bilateral agreements.

Felipe and Letizia had postponed a planned trip to Morocco several times since they last visited the North African country in July 2014.

Spain is Morocco's top trade partner and the two countries share close diplomatic ties.
