An announcement made yesterday in New [00:03:18] York by US Assistant Secretary of State Christopher [00:03:21] Lando at the end of his talks with Nasser Bourita on [00:03:25] the sidelines of the 81st session of the United Nations General [00:03:28] Assembly. Let's listen to the senior American official on this subject, he [00:03:32] is at the microphone of our special envoys on site, Nadia Almouddin [00:03:36] and. [00:03:45] We have the centuries-old friendship linking our two [00:03:49] countries, as well as our common vision for the development of the Sahara [00:03:52] region and for strengthened cooperation under [00:03:55] Morocco's sovereignty over this territory. The United States [00:04:01] field. is eager to work with Morocco and other concerned actors to resolve this conflict once [00:04:05] and for all. We deplore the persistence [00:04:08] of this regional dispute for over 50 years. [00:04:12] This status quo cannot be [00:04:13] maintained. [00:04:17] Another supporter, Peru, the South American country expressed its [00:04:21] willingness to open a consulate in the city of Dakhla, a diplomatic [00:04:25] outpost that will serve as a platform for access [00:04:29] to African markets for Peruvian products, an announcement made in [00:04:33] New York by the Peruvian Minister of Foreign Affairs Carlos [00:04:36] Espaigar. The South American diplomat [00:04:39] expressed his country's support for the territorial [00:04:42] integrity and sovereignty of the Sahara, as well [00:04:46] as his support for the Moroccan autonomy initiative for [00:04:49] the Sahara, considering it, and I quote, as a just, sustainable [00:04:53] and acceptable political solution for all [00:04:56] parties. [00:05:00] And still on the sidelines of the 81st session of the United Nations [00:05:04] General Assembly, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan [00:05:07] Residents Abroad, Nasar Bourita, had a series of [00:05:11] interviews yesterday with several of his counterparts. Bilateral [00:05:14] cooperation was at the heart of the discussions. Nanserta also [00:05:18] delivered the report of his participation in this General [00:05:22] Assembly. On site, our envoys Nadiel Mouden and Abderahim, [00:05:25] commentary, Sofia. [00:05:28] Busy agenda for Nassar Bourita in New York. Strategic [00:05:31] alliances are consolidated with [00:05:34] conviviality. [00:05:37] Relaxed exchange atmosphere with the Minister of Foreign [00:05:40] Affairs, all [00:05:43] the interview with the head of Lebanese [00:05:45] diplomacy, a firm handshake to mark his subsequent [00:05:49] meeting with the Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs before warm [00:05:53] discussions with the Ivorian [00:05:59] UN, Moroccan diplomacy is running at full speed [00:06:03] and is positive for the first national [00:06:04] cause. [00:06:08] This UN General Assembly was an opportunity to strengthen. [00:06:12] international momentum initiated by His Majesty King Mohammed VI in [00:06:16] favor of the Moroccan identity of the Sahara. Several countries [00:06:19] representing various continents have joined this dynamic of support for [00:06:22] the Moroccan identity of the Sahara and the Moroccan autonomy plan, especially [00:06:26] from Latin America. Nasar Boreta also updated [00:06:30] on Morocco's candidacy for a non-permanent seat on the UN [00:06:34] Security Council from 2028-2029. The [00:06:38] elections for these seats will take place in June [00:06:40] 2027. [00:06:50] this candidacy is based on a diplomatic approach rooted in a secular tradition carried by [00:06:54] the discerning vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI on major [00:06:58] global issues, as well as the experience accumulated by [00:07:01] the Kingdom over the centuries, whether it concerns climate [00:07:05] change, development, the fight against terrorism or major [00:07:09] regional issues, Morocco will approach these issues. [00:07:12] according to a clear and well-defined vision. On [00:07:18] the UN, Morocco launched several initiatives, such as the [00:07:21] signing of the African Convention on Disarmament, Demobilization [00:07:24] and Reintegration of Child Soldiers, or the ministerial [00:07:28] meeting of the Atlantic African States process. [00:07:32] Wayaume also presented an initiative focused on public-private [00:07:35] partnerships in development and co-chaired [00:07:41] the World Conference on the Fight Against Hate [00:07:44] Speech, all commitments that confirm [00:07:47] Morocco's vocation as an indispensable [00:07:51] international partner. [00:07:54] It's official, the verdict of the polls is now known, the [00:07:57] final results of the legislative elections have been [00:08:01] proclaimed, leading the Authenticity and Modernity party with [00:08:05] 97 seats, ahead of the National Rally of Independents [00:08:08] with 66 seats and the Istiqlal party. [00:08:14] and Development party completes the podium with [00:08:17] 54 seats, a ranking confirmed, according to the [00:08:21] Minister of Interior, by the provisional results announced [00:08:24] previously. [00:08:31] These results are analyzed by our guest on the panel, Tarek [00:08:35] Akdim, good evening, good evening, thank you for the invitation, thank you. You are [00:08:39] a political analyst, expert in territorial policy. Let's [00:08:42] focus on the participation rate, which stood at [00:08:45] 38.08 %. What do you make of it and [00:08:48] how does the political class analyze this decline in [00:08:51] participation? First, we must understand that today, Morocco [00:08:55] is going through an unprecedented context, a context that is marked first [00:08:58] by the very fragile international economic [00:09:01] environment, given Morocco's openness to the rest of the world, [00:09:05] and also a national context that shows a little bit the decline, this participation rate [00:09:09] shows the decline of the Moroccan electorate and the interest [00:09:12] it has in political matters, not [00:09:15] to be confused with electoral matters and political matters. In fact, this participation [00:09:19] rate remains very, very low if we compare it to the [00:09:22] 2021 elections, knowing that 2021 concerned the three [00:09:26] legislative, communal and regional levels, but it [00:09:29] shows a little bit that today the electorate needs [00:09:32] more perhaps clarity, rigor in the vision [00:09:36] carried by the different political parties, the most [00:09:39] represented. Hmm, so a new sequence is now [00:09:43] that of alliances. What are today, in your opinion, the possible alliances to [00:09:47] build a governmental majority? Will the governing bodies [00:09:50] be limited to the leading trio, or will they perhaps open up to other [00:09:54] political formations? Exactly. [00:09:57] So, in fact, today the PAM is leading [00:10:00] these elections with a very interesting [00:10:04] rate. Now, indeed, the alliances will [00:10:07] certainly be built around new potential parties. [00:10:11] Uh... [00:10:22] an opening to other parties that came after the PJD. Today, the PJD, [00:10:28] opposition, and very clearly we will go towards the other [00:10:32] parties that came after the PJD, namely the popular movement, [00:10:36] the USFP, perhaps the constitutional union. So, in fact, we are facing [00:10:39] a context of what I call a differentiated [00:10:42] context, a differentiated temporality that [00:10:45] certainly after, of course, His [00:10:48] Majesty will designate, of course, the head of government according to article 47 of the Moroccan [00:10:52] constitution, and after that, the [00:10:55] negotiations will begin with the different parties. But I imagine that the two [00:10:59] scenarios that are very probable are the return of the RNI [00:11:02] with the Istiqlal, otherwise eventually the RNI could go [00:11:06] into opposition, and we will see the Istiqlal [00:11:10] with the PAM and the other parties that come after the PJD. You were talking a [00:11:14] moment ago about the PJD, the balance party which made a clear [00:11:17] comeback with 54 seats at the end of this election, a [00:11:21] progression that the political formation proudly claims. [00:11:25] The party has also chosen to position itself in the ranks of the [00:11:29] national opposition, an announcement made at the end of an extraordinary meeting held under [00:11:32] the chairmanship of the Secretary General of the party, Benkiran, [00:11:36] Baschi with and [00:11:40] 13 seats in 2021 to [00:11:42] 54 this year, the PJD quadruples its [00:11:45] representation in parliament, 4th political force, [00:11:49] at the end of these last elections, the Lamp party [00:11:52] congratulates itself on its results. during an extraordinary [00:11:55] meeting held under the chairmanship of the party's [00:11:59] secretary general. [00:12:02] We are very proud of our results, the PJD [00:12:05] was able to recover some of its popularity. We went [00:12:09] from 13 to five seats, which is [00:12:11] a representation that has more than quadrupled since these [00:12:14] legislative elections. A progression in the [00:12:17] polls, it now remains to define the party's [00:12:21] role in the new political configuration. The [00:12:24] PJD intends to defend its program from the [00:12:28] opposition. [00:12:31] We have our own electoral program, we will strive to [00:12:35] defend and implement part of this program, [00:12:39] notably through our action in the [00:12:41] opposition. [00:12:45] Who will remain in the opposition, and who will be in the majority? [00:12:49] to know which parties will form the majority and which will [00:12:52] join the opposition, [00:12:55] for a united, stronger and more [00:12:58] influential opposition, an ambition reinforced, according to the [00:13:02] General Secretariat, by the results of the [00:13:05] election, which it presents as the culmination of continuous work [00:13:08] in the opposition and a sustained electoral [00:13:11] campaign. [00:13:14] We have just seen it, the PJD made a comeback [00:13:17] with 54 seats, the Lamp party, after [00:13:21] the results obtained, officially announced its [00:13:25] choice to position itself in the ranks of a responsible and strong [00:13:28] national opposition. Is this a sign of a strategy [00:13:32] to rebuild the party without the wear and tear of power, or rather the [00:13:37] the impossibility of allying with the PAM? Indeed, I [00:13:40] would say that these results of the September 23rd election [00:13:44] illustrated a form of corrective requirement, with [00:13:47] notably the return of the PD to the political scene. They came in 4th, they [00:13:51] gained 41 seats between 2021 and 2026. There [00:13:55] is a form of return, in fact, of coherence in the program proposed [00:13:59] by the PJD. There is perhaps also a form of rigor in the way [00:14:03] of posing the most pressing problems during these [00:14:07] last few months. So, in fact, the PJD [00:14:10] perhaps wanted to return to the scene with an elite that [00:14:14] is certainly renewed, especially in large cities, since it gained a lot of [00:14:18] seats in large cities. And so, this means that there is a form of recomposition, in fact, of this [00:14:21] national political landscape, with a form [00:14:25] of continuity, since the first three who came in [00:14:29] first are still the same as in the 2021 [00:14:32] elections. But this sign remains a sign that [00:14:35] must challenge all actors in Moroccan [00:14:38] political life, and this can only [00:14:42] be positive in the sense [00:14:44] that parliamentary work requires a certain [00:14:47] balance in the implementation of projects, [00:14:51] in the rigor. Uh, that the [00:14:55] constitution must [00:14:58] also to the legislative institution, [00:15:01] uh, necessitates, of course, could also play an important [00:15:05] role for the lives of Moroccans in [00:15:09] the next five years. This significant return [00:15:12] could make a difference in the work [00:15:15] that the PD has adopted with other institutions, [00:15:19] with other parties that have chosen the opposition. Hmm, a [00:15:22] political landscape that is thus reconfigured. [00:15:28] For this analysis, I remind you that you are a political analyst, expert in territorial [00:18:28] stop, this evening's guest is a major figure in the Moroccan [00:18:32] art scene, Mohammed Al Mourabiti, this [00:18:35] self-taught artist, native of Marrakech, has been painting for four decades a [00:18:39] body of work deeply rooted in his territory, from the ocher [00:18:43] city to Tahnaut, the artist nourished by the earth, [00:18:46] landscapes and memory, [00:18:50] immediately recognizable, an intimate [00:18:52] quest for the invisible made of ocher and forms drawn from the [00:18:56] Moroccan landscape, transformed into signs, a [00:18:59] work that aims to break with reality [00:19:02] to reach a more essential [00:19:05] dimension. [00:19:07] Today, at Gallery 38 in Casablanca, one can admire a [00:19:11] retrospective of his work titled Parabola, [00:19:14] the exhibition traces almost 40 years of painting, it [00:19:18] will take place from October 15th. Mohamed Murabiti will [00:19:22] recount his journey and re-examine our relationship with [00:19:26] territory and the [00:19:27] spiritual. [00:19:36] whom we have the honor to receive in the cultural section [00:19:39] this Saturday. Good evening and thank you for accepting our invitation. [00:26:00] so much eye, the journalist Hamid. Barada passed away [00:26:03] last night at the age of [00:26:06] 87, a native of Tangier, the deceased, [00:26:09] graduated in philosophy, law and political sociology, [00:26:13] had joined the weekly Jeune Afrique where he became a great [00:26:16] reporter. He was then editor-in-chief [00:26:20] from 174 to 1985 and [00:26:24] a regular contributor before being appointed director Maghreb [00:26:30] the French-speaking channel TV5. The deceased was [00:26:33] also known to the general public for his program, but also on the [00:26:36] 2M television channel, a program that he presented between 2007 [00:26:40] and [00:26:49] Casablanca, its emblematic municipal market of [00:26:53] Maharif, celebrates its centenary by hosting the [00:26:56] first international mosaic art [00:26:58] symposium. The event gives birth to a large fresco that... [00:27:02] intended to adorn the facade of the market to revive [00:27:06] in color a century of memories of this high place of Casablanca [00:27:09] trade reportage [00:27:12] Nawal Mehdoub on a story [00:27:13] by mail [00:27:16] bordered with mosaic the municipal market of Rif turns 100 in [00:27:19] color this mural fresco comes to renew the memory of the place on the occasion [00:27:23] of an international symposium entirely dedicated to these small [00:27:27] colored pieces of stone carrying an eternal [00:27:29] art. [00:28:03] This contemporary mosaic is synonymous with intercultural [00:28:05] dialogue, it was born from the skilled hands of several artists from [00:28:09] Morocco, but also from other countries in the Maghreb, the Arab world and [00:28:12] Europe.
