Israeli minister in Morocco for first time since 2003

Israeli Environment Minister Zeev Elkin is in Morocco, the first visit there by an Israeli minister since 2003.

Elkin is there to attend the UN climate talks in the city of Marakesh, he says.

Israel radio quoted Moroccan officials as saying that this does not represent a warming of relations between the two countries and that Elkin is there only because it is a UN event.
