    The exhibition organized as part of the 3rd edition of the Mohammed VI Foundation of African Ulema competition of memorization and recitation of the Holy Quran (August 11-14), under the patronage of HM King Mohammed VI, summarizes a process of more than 12 centuries of Moroccan experience in the preservation of the Holy Book and its dissemination across Africa, he said, noting that this unique experience is able to contribute to the consolidation of strong spiritual ties between Morocco and Tanzania.

    In parallel to this exhibition, several workshops of calligraphy will be organized by eminent Moroccan calligraphers for the benefit of participants in the competition, as well as the entire public, added Rifki.

    For his part, deputy speaker of the Tanzanian Parliament Moussa Hassan Zounkou praised the efforts made by HM the King for the benefit of Africa in all areas, and particularly in terms of dissemination of Islam across the continent, expressing his thanks to the Sovereign for the choice of Tanzania as the third country to host this contest.

  • Politics : President of Argentine Political Party Demos: Morocco Has Shown 'Course' of Opening up to The World

    In an interview with the Moroccan news channel M24, the Argentine politician, whose party advocates economic liberalism as a political doctrine, said that "Morocco should be an example for Argentina in this process of opening to the World", which has enabled it to achieve a perceptible and sustainable economic growth.

    Etchepare said that this vigorous economic growth is due to the fact that Moroccans "have understood the course to follow and the reforms to undertake. Argentina should follow this example," he recommended, adding that "Morocco has done what all reasonably liberal countries should have done".

    "In 'Demos', added Etchepare, we are convinced that Morocco is the country that leads this process of transition in Africa towards more openness to the world. There are also realities that we cannot ignore, such as its role as the main producer of phosphates”.

    Referring to the role of renewable energy in the fight against climate change, the Argentine politician stressed that "Argentina is beginning to follow the path of solar energy which is very developed in Morocco," which would open interesting prospects for cooperation between the two countries.

  • World : Pelosi's Visit to Taiwan 'Violates One-China Principle' - Chinese Diplomat

    At a press briefing held at the Chinese Embassy, Li said the controversial visit is an act that "betrays U.S. commitments to China."

    The Chinese diplomat cited the measures taken by Beijing in reaction to this visit, including "sanctions against Ms. Pelosi and her relatives", "the holding of transparent military exercises" near Taiwan and "the cancellation of bilateral cooperation projects."

    "We have no choice but to defend our sovereignty, our integrity, and we say that the principle of non-interference in the affairs of sovereign states cannot be ignored or abandoned, otherwise the world will be returned to the law of the jungle," he said.

    "The One-China principle is the consensus of the international community and is also a fundamental norm governing relations between China and foreign countries," he explained, noting that "so far, we have counted 181 countries with which we have established diplomatic relations following the One China principle."

    The Chinese ambassador took the opportunity to welcome the "excellent" relations between Rabat and Beijing, thanking Morocco for its "constant support to all issues of vital interest to China," recalling, in this context, Morocco 1971 vote in favor of China's return to the United Nations.

    Nancy Pelosi is the first senior U.S. official to visit Taiwan since the visit made to the island in 1997 by the then Speaker of the House of Representatives, Newt Gingrich.

    After Pelosi's visit, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken reiterated at a press conference that "nothing has changed with respect to the U.S. One-China policy. [...] We do not support Taiwanese independence."

  • Regional : Tetouan Authorities Arrest IS-Sympathizer for Alleged Involvement in Planning Terrorist Attack

    The extremist, aged 36, was arrested during a security operation carried out Special Forces of the Directorate General of Territorial Surveillance (DGST), in cooperation with the Central Bureau of Judicial Investigations (BCIJ), said the latter in a statement.

    Preliminary data suggest the suspect is imbued with extremist ideology inciting takfir (excommunication) of society and authority representatives, the same source indicated.

    It further pointed out his activity in virtual networks and communication channels that promote subversive extremist ideology and encourage sympathizers to plan criminal projects targeting people, in addition to public and private infrastructure.

    The suspect was placed in custody at the disposal of the judicial investigation to identify the terrorist plans he adhered to and define his possible relationships with terrorist cells and organizations operating both in Morocco and abroad.

    This security operation is part of DGST's intense and constant efforts to fight against extremist cells and defeat terrorist plans and projects that threaten the safety and security of the homeland and citizens, the statement concluded.

  • World : Google to Deploy Cloud Region in New Zealand

    "Becoming a cloud region means that New Zealand businesses will have the choice to keep their data onshore (locally) and work with the national Google Cloud team to really drive the country's digital transformation," New Zealand Minister for the Digital Economy and Communications David Clark said Wednesday.

    The decision was made as part of an independent due diligence of Google Cloud, he noted in a statement, saying it is not a government contract. The onshore cloud facilities offer stronger control of data in New Zealand because "it's kept here, where our laws and protections apply," he argued.

    Amazon Web Services decided last September to establish a cloud region in New Zealand, while Microsoft Azure set up a cloud region in 2020, he recalled, adding that all these measures are likely to help the Oceanian country develop its digital economy.

    The use of cloud computing allows companies and users to free themselves from the need to run software applications on their own equipment or manage physical servers themselves.

  • General : Hammouchi Receives Director General of Spanish National Police (Statement)

    This meeting is part of the working visit made by Piqueras to Morocco leading a high-level security delegation composed of the Commissioner General of information, Eugenio Pereiro Blanco, the Commissioner General of judicial police, Rafael Perez Perez, the Commissioner General of foreigners and borders, Juan Enrique Taborda Alvaraz, the head of the division of international cooperation, Alicia Malo Sanchez and the adviser to the Director General, Jesus Ramirez Jara, said the Directorate General of National Security (DGSN) in a statement.

    This visit embodies the firm commitment to consolidate and further develop the partnership and cooperation relations between the Moroccan and Spanish security services, with the aim of making it an advanced partnership based on solid foundations of trust and credibility, serving the common interests of both countries, able to ensure security and stability, while promoting the sharing of experiences and expertise in the fight against transnational organized crime, according to the same source.

    The meeting was also an opportunity, added the statement, to discuss and exchange on a set of security issues of common interest, including those related to the fight against the threats of extremist terrorist groups and organized crime networks active in the Western Mediterranean, as well as ways to deal with criminal activities related to human trafficking and international trafficking in drugs and psychotropic substances, in addition to strengthening mechanisms and channels for exchange of operational data related to the security field.

    The two sides also discussed ways to increase institutional partnerships in vital areas such as border crossing security and forensics, and to strengthen police training programs in various professional disciplines, including the qualification of elite police teams and their upgrading in the management of highly sensitive interventions.

    This meeting between the Director General of National Security and Territory Surveillance and the Director General of the Spanish National Police crowns an advanced course of the strategic partnership uniting the Moroccan and Spanish police services, a course marked by the common will to expand the areas of bilateral cooperation, at the service of the citizens of both countries and for the security and stability in both countries, concluded the statement.
