    The investiture ceremony was held at the Presidential Complex in Ankara in the presence of heads of state, government representatives, legislative institutions and international organizations. His Majesty the King's Ambassador to Türkiye Mohamed Ali Lazrak also attended the inauguration.

    Earlier in the day, President Erdoğan took the constitutional oath at the Turkish Parliament, marking the official start of his third presidential term, after receiving the inauguration document from the Speaker of Parliament.

    After taking the constitutional oath, the head of state visited the mausoleum of the founder of the Turkish Republic, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, before proceeding to the Presidential Complex to attend the inauguration ceremony.

    As Erdoğan's convoy arrived at the Presidential Complex, 101 cannon shots were fired to mark the ceremony, in which the Presidential Symphony Orchestra, the Turkish Traditional Music Ensemble and the Military Music Orchestra of the Turkish Armed Forces took part.

    At the end of the ceremony, President Erdoğan will host a reception in honor of the guests at Çankaya Palace.

    On Thursday, the Supreme Election Board announced the final results of the second round of the May 28 presidential election, which showed that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was re-elected with 52.18 percent of the vote.

  • Politics : 'Model of North-South Cooperation': Spanish Top Official Hails Migration Management with Morocco

    "The Spain-Morocco permanent group on migration [...] is an institutional framework that [...] has formed the permanent basis of an exceptional partnership on migration between the two countries," Castro Fernández told MAP.

    This statement is "supported by concrete actions that make it [the Morocco-Spain partnership] today a model of North-South cooperation," she further noted on the sidelines of the 21st meeting of the Group, which took place on Friday in Madrid.

    In this regard, the Spanish official voiced her wish to see this "successful" experience "extended to other countries," noting that Rabat and Madrid "are committed to continuing this experience with a global approach that reconciles multiple dimensions and contributes to jointly addressing and managing migratory flows from a human and security perspective."

    Castro Fernández, who welcomed the "success" of this group, maintained that both parties are determined to "increase circular migration projects, strengthen cooperation in surveillance, and expand integration policies and the fight against racism and xenophobia."

  • Economy : Morocco Seeks International Leadership in Field of Technology - Israeli Newspaper

    The newspaper notes that Morocco's ambition is to become the most important technological center in Africa and a gateway to the continent, adding that the creation of GITEX Africa responds to the Kingdom's desire to achieve this ambition.

    "Through this event, Morocco aims to bring together technology giants, start-ups, investors, governments and academics to create joint initiatives," the newspaper continues, adding that the Kingdom also attaches great importance to the fact that its initiatives must take place on its soil.

    "Human capital is one of the country's most powerful resources, with around 12,000 engineers and between 10,000 and 12,000 technicians graduating every year, which represents a significant human resource," he stressed.

    "If these resources are invested and properly targeted, significant achievements can be made for Morocco in the digital field, and the Kingdom will become a hub in North Africa and Africa in general, which will contribute to the development of its economy," the Israeli daily said.

  • Politics : Parliament Speakers to EP President: 'Unique Morocco-EU Partnership Commits Us to Act with Respect and Determination'

    The Moroccan officials' statement came in response to European Parliament (EP) President Roberta Metsola's letter noting "a common will to ensure in all circumstances the continuation of dialogue between our respective legislative institutions, in the interest, well understood, of the strategic partnership between Morocco and the EU."

    "This unique partnership commits us to act with respect and determination in favor of the development of relations between the political formations that make up our nations, through the institutions that emanate from them - the Moroccan Parliament and the European Parliament," they pointed out in this missive.

    Pointing out that both Morocco and the EU countries have developed a positive agenda and pioneering joint actions, both bilaterally and in concertation in multilateral forums, Talbi El Alami and Mayara specified that the partnership between the Kingdom and the EU is enriched by these achievements. "It is our responsibility to do everything in our power to preserve them."

    After having recalled that the resolution of January 19 and subsequent developments have had a profound impact on the image of the European Parliament among all the living forces of the Moroccan Nation, they stressed that they had been surprised, "while we thought we saw in your letter a potential for dialogue", by the unfair positions adopted in the draft of the report on "foreign interference in all democratic processes of the European Union; including disinformation", established on May 15, 2023 by the Special Committee on "Interference and Disinformation and on Strengthening Integrity" (ING2) in the European Parliament.

    "As you know, this draft will be put to a vote at the next plenary session of the European Parliament. Judging by its inquisitorial content and hostile recommendations, this draft, if adopted, will damage any positive prospects between our two institutions," warned the presidents of the House of Representatives and the House of Councillors.

    In view of this, "we call upon the sense of responsibility expressed in your letter, and invite you to give effect to your decision to appoint the European component of the Joint Parliamentary Committee, so that this committee - through its Moroccan and European co-chairs - can meet immediately and quickly agree on a favorable outcome."

    Talbi El Alami and Mayara pointed out that "if our partnership is intended to overcome difficult issues, it must be noted that what we find all too often in the remarks and documents issued by the European Parliament with regard to Morocco goes beyond the scope of constructive criticism, and is openly part of an unfair and unfounded offensive."

    According to the two officials, "the necessary exchanges that drive dialogue between our political communities must be accompanied by a relationship worthy of the citizens they serve."

    "It is in the hope of conferring an ever stronger dynamic to the relationship that unites our institutions that today it is imperative to engage in a frank debate on all issues of mutual interest," maintained the speakers of the two Chambers of the Moroccan Parliament, affirming that it is decidedly necessary that relations concerning a partner country reflect reality and that they can be anchored on the healthy foundations offered by a truly balanced dialogue.

    To this end, "we are ready to discuss with you the ways forward and to receive the most positive indications regarding the development of our cooperation."

  • Politics : Counter-terrorism: 'Marrakech Platform', Important Contribution to Stronger Regional Response (UN Official)

    « The increasingly complex nature of the terrorist threat requires multilateral cooperation and multiagency approaches to create a stronger and more cohesive regional response. The Marrakech Platform is an important contribution to that end, » said Voronkov at the opening of the 2nd edition of the High-Level Meeting of Heads of Counter-Terrorism and Security Agencies in Africa "Marrakech Platform", co-chaired by Morocco and the United Nations Office of (UNOCT).

    On this occasion, Voronkov expressed his sincere gratitude to the Kingdom of Morocco for its "immense support" to the United Nations Office of Counter-terrorism, and for hosting the second annual meeting of the Marrakech Platform this year in Tangier.

    The UN official recalled in this context the opening, in June last year, by the UNOCT of its Program Office in Rabat and its training center for counter-terrorism in Africa, with the "strong political support and generous financial contribution by the government of Morocco".

    « I am very proud to say that since its opening, the Rabat Office has already conducted important capacity-building activities together with our partners from Morocco, » he stressed, citing in particular the launch last year of a specialized training program on counter-terrorism investigations.

    UNOCT staff members from the Counter-Terrorism Investigations Programme, Kidnap for Ransom Project, and the Global Fusion Cells Programme now also operate out of Rabat, « ensuring their close proximity to African Member States, and facilitating more tailored and effective delivery, » he underlined.

    Voronkov took the opportunity to "thank again the Kingdom of Morocco, and our observers, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the State of Qatar, Brazil, and the European Union » for their support, which « allows us to grow and effectively deliver our programmes throughout the continent ».

    He also welcomed the "strategic cooperation" between Morocco and the United Nations Office of Counter-terrorism, noting that this meeting of the "Marrakech Platform" is an opportunity to discuss practical ways of supporting African member states in a more effective fight against terrorism.

    « I am happy to see the Marrakesh Platform evolving with a growing level of participation and welcome the opportunity to once again have an open discussion with national stakeholders about the strategies and approaches to reinforce regional cooperation on counter-terrorism issues » he said.

    Voronkov noted that the two-day event will be an opportunity to address common challenges in inter-agency cooperation, share best practices in strategic decision-making and strengthen national approaches to counter-terrorism.

    He added in this respect that Africa remains a priority for UNOCT, announcing in this context the organization, in early 2024 in Abuja, in collaboration with the Nigerian government, of an African summit on the fight against terrorism under the theme "Strengthening regional cooperation and institution building to address the evolving threat of terrorism in Africa".
