"Swaraj's visit will strengthen India’s relations with these three countries, expand avenues of cooperation and provide an opportunity to discuss regional and global issues of importance," the Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement. 
She will first visit Bulgaria for two days. During her stay in Bulgaria, the External Affairs Minister will meet Ekaterina Zaharieva, the country’s deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister. The two leaders will discuss bilateral, regional and global issues of mutual interest.
Swaraj will pay floral tributes at the statue of Mahatma Gandhi at the South Park in Sofia. She will then visit Morocco on February 17 and 18, where she will meet Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Nasser Bourita.
