Shaked arrived in Morocco on Monday, where she is scheduled to meet with a series of senior officials, including Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita.
The interior minister and her Moroccan counterpart will discuss ways to increase bilateral cooperation between the two countries "in areas of common interest," according to Israeli Ambassador to Morocco David Govrin.
In the same video, Shaked addressed the collapse of the Israeli government, stating, "I heard that a few things are happening in Israel. I am continuing this visit as normal. I have a mission, to bring foreign workers to Israel for the nursing and construction fields."
She also dismissed as "nonsense" Israeli media reports regarding a breakdown in relations between herself and fellow Yamina Party member Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.
