Moroccan Interior Minister held a meeting with leaders and officials of political parties that have a parliamentary group or faction on Wednesday. The meeting is part of the preparations for the 2027 elections to renew national, local, and professional elected institutions. These institutions include councils of communes, districts, prefectures, provinces, regions, and professional chambers, as well as representatives of employees and the Council of Advisors.
The meeting is part of a methodology of fruitful consultation and constructive dialogue with political actors. The goal is to provide suitable conditions for the success of these elections, contributing to the consolidation of the foundations of the national democratic structure. During the meeting, party leaders were informed about important topics related to preparing the general system that will frame the upcoming elections.
The topics discussed include preparing the national and professional electoral body and adopting the same legislative measures established for the last parliamentary elections. These measures are mainly related to the purification of electoral operations. The meeting also provided an opportunity to exchange views on the necessary procedures and measures to make the 2027 electoral process a distinguished station.
The procedures and measures aim to provide conditions for fair competition among various parties and strengthen the trust of citizens in ballot boxes and political and professional representative institutions. The parties agreed to provide the Ministry of Interior with their proposals on the matter by November 15, 2026. This will allow for the preparation of an initial basis for possible changes to the electoral system.
The changes will be presented to the legislative process under the best conditions and deadlines. The meeting's atmosphere was described as positive, with fruitful and frank discussions. Party leaders expressed their readiness to contribute to the success of the 2027 elections and continue to strengthen the democratic choice.
The democratic choice is guided by King Mohammed VI's wisdom and care. The King has sent a message of condolences to Spanish King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia following a train accident near Toledo. The King expressed his deepest condolences and solidarity with the Spanish royal family.
The Moroccan General Consulate in Madrid has announced that no Moroccan victims have been registered so far in the train accident. The Consulate continues to monitor the situation and has been in contact with local Spanish authorities.
