00:00The Moroccan economy is expected to grow by 2.5% in the fourth quarter of 2024 on an annual basis instead of 2.8%, which is likely to be achieved during the third quarter.
00:28Al-Talmandubiya Al-Samiya Al-Takhtid in the third quarter of 2024 explained that the scenario of this growth is based on a more moderate development of demand in the last quarter of 2024, and the risks related to this scenario are mainly related to the development of exports.
00:53It also added that there is a possibility that the increase in exports from export and chemical industries is less important than expected, especially in the case of the reception of Chinese exports, while there is an increased resilience in the European demand for the production of transportation and electricity equipment.
01:18In the same economic scenario for the third quarter of 2024, it is expected that the growth rate will rise slightly during the third quarter of the year following several phases of recession, where it will reach 1.2% instead of 0.8% during the previous quarter.
01:39This increase will reflect an increase in food prices by 0.7%, while decreasing by 0.3% during the previous quarter, and the return of non-food products prices to 1.4% compared to 1.6% during the second quarter.
01:57It will also reflect an increase in meat prices by 0.1% due to the continued increase in red meat prices compared to a large increase in double meat prices during the summer period.
02:12Yesterday, the sixth version of the digital African summit was launched, which is organized under the auspices of King Mohammed VI, which enabled the gathering and approximation of the most important figures in the digital sector in the Kingdom and in the Samaritan continent, and provided an exploration of the opportunities and challenges posed by the integration of artificial intelligence.
02:38This event came in a context that witnessed rapid transformations, as artificial intelligence forms a source of opportunities and challenges at the same time, especially in the areas of energy and talent management.
02:52It is an opportunity to think deeply about the future of digital Africa, knowing that since its inception in 2014, the digital African summit has become a real platform for exchange and networks, combining commercial brands, announcers and emerging companies to create a rich experience in the latest directions of the digital field.
03:13The Chinese diplomatic search for the International Trade Organization said that Beijing took the first step in starting a trade dispute with Turkey in the organization due to its imposing sanctions on the imports of electric vehicles.
03:27It stated that the special measures taken by Turkey violate the rules of the International Trade Organization and aim to protect the country's economy by its nature.
03:37Beijing also insisted on following the rules of the International Trade Organization and correct its measures immediately, to the extent of its expression.
03:45In June, Turkey announced that it would impose an additional 40% tax on the import of vehicles from China.
03:53Last month, it imposed strict conditions on the import of hijacked vehicles, including those imported from China.
04:00The International Bank has announced that it will provide an urgent line of trust to Lebanon to face the difficult conditions it faces due to the escalation of the war between Hezbollah and Israel, which forced thousands of residents to move to safe areas in neighboring countries.
04:17The director of operations at the international foundation, Anna Purdy, said that the bank is looking for a way to provide urgent financing to Lebanon, and it is likely to include up to $100 million through the use of special funds in the current loan agreement.
04:32It is worth noting that the bank has loans of $1.65 billion with Lebanon, including a $250 million loan.
04:41This week, the bank agreed to help in connecting different renewable energy projects in the country.
04:49The rising tensions in the Middle East are a major economic threat to the region, especially in Europe, which relies heavily on energy imports from abroad.
05:00The Eurozone faces rising oil prices as a result of these conflicts, with the possibility of an increase in the return of inflation after the European Central Bank was unable to raise its funds in recent months.
05:14The high energy prices, which exceeded 10% in the last two weeks, could resume inflation if continued for a long time, which would weaken the efforts made by the central bank to lower it to acceptable levels.
05:29Despite attempts by the European Central Bank to maintain prices through its monetary policy, the continued rise in energy prices may push it to reconsider its current strategy.
