In a significant development, four Moroccan parties have officially announced the formation of a government majority. The parties, including the Authenticity and Modernity Party, the Independence Party, the Socialist Union of Popular Forces, and the Party of Progress and Socialism, made the announcement in a joint statement. This move comes after King Mohammed VI appointed Fatima Zahra El Mansouri as the head of the new government.
According to the statement, El Mansouri, who is the national coordinator of the collective leadership of the Authenticity and Modernity Party, began consultations with various parliamentary parties after her appointment. These discussions focused on addressing the country's challenges and forming a strong and cohesive political majority. The parties aim to provide a better quality of life for citizens, strengthen freedoms and rights, and promote social justice and fairness.
The joint statement highlighted that the decision to form a government majority was made after two rounds of responsible political consultations led by El Mansouri. These consultations took into account the country's interests, the national and international context, and the popular will expressed during the legislative elections on September 23. The elections resulted in El Mansouri's appointment as the head of government, a historic first for Morocco.
The four parties forming the government majority share a common vision for reform and are committed to working together. They aim to support King Mohammed VI's vision of building a thriving Morocco that moves at a consistent pace, based on consolidating democratic foundations, good governance, social justice, and fairness. The parties also seek to strengthen the country's productive capacities and promote economic growth.
As part of the agreement, the four parties will propose names for ministers who possess the necessary skills, political sense, integrity, and probity. The goal is to form a cohesive and strong government that can implement the government's program, which will be prepared as soon as possible. This program is expected to address the country's challenges and promote sustainable development.
The formation of the government majority marks a significant step towards stability and progress in Morocco. The country's new government will face various challenges, including promoting economic growth, addressing social issues, and strengthening democratic institutions. The parties involved have expressed their commitment to working together to achieve these goals and improve the lives of Moroccan citizens.
