00:00Welcome, dear viewers, to a new and live report from the Media 1 newsroom.
00:20We want to share with you the weekly reports that we have shared with you,
00:24specifically the reports that were broadcast on Media 1 TV last week.
00:29The city of Al-Dakhla has held for two days the fourth round of the Moroccan Diplomacy Forum,
00:35which has become an important annual platform for strategic thinking
00:40around the challenges and opportunities that form the path of Morocco and its role in Africa.
00:45The fourth edition of the forum was marked by two prominent stations in the modern history of Morocco,
00:53which have represented it for 25 years under the leadership of King Mohamed III of the Throne
00:59and for 10 years since the launch of the Southern Provinces Development Programme.
01:04These events represent an embodiment of a deep royal vision,
01:08which has made Morocco a major player in economic, diplomatic and cultural levels,
01:14as well as the launch of the Southern Provinces in an unprecedented development path.
01:19Let's follow the details.
01:24The fourth round of the Moroccan Diplomacy Forum discusses the structural and development programs
01:30that Morocco witnesses in the Middle East, especially in the Southern Provinces.
01:35This year's edition is a special edition,
01:38as it celebrates 25 years since the leadership of King Mohamed VI of the Throne
01:44and 10 years since the launch of the Southern Provinces Development Programme.
01:49In this year, there is a major topic related to 25 years since the leadership of King Mohamed VI of the Throne,
02:01as this round coincides with 10 years since the launch of the Southern Provinces Development Programme.
02:09The general discussion focuses on a major topic,
02:13which is the strategic royal vision during 25 years,
02:18which enabled the modernization of Morocco through developed infrastructure and social development,
02:25and made the human being the center of all these programs.
02:28Thanks to the royal vision, the Southern Provinces today are a mirror
02:34of the progress of Morocco in all areas,
02:38thanks to the stability factors and the modernization that Morocco has witnessed.
02:44The edition is a celebration of the political successes
02:50that Morocco has achieved in the Moroccan Sahara.
02:59The 25 years of royal diplomacy in the Moroccan Sahara
03:03have been a period of contemplation, determination and defense
03:07on the first national issue,
03:09especially in light of the recognition of the great international powers in the Moroccan Sahara,
03:13especially the recent French position,
03:16and the increased and unprecedented international support for the Moroccan Sahara,
03:21including the initiative of self-government by the four parliamentary councils,
03:27especially most of the European countries.
03:30So there has been a solid work over the past 25 years,
03:34which has led to these successes that we are witnessing today.
03:41The development programs that the Southern Provinces are witnessing
03:44have been an important focus of the round discussion in the forum,
03:47and have highlighted the diplomacy and expertise
03:50of the success of the development approach in the Moroccan Sahara.
03:56I have been here for about three years,
03:59and for the third time I participate in this forum internally.
04:03Today, we can talk about several issues,
04:06especially in the field of diplomacy,
04:09where Morocco has made great efforts in this field.
04:13There is also progress in the economic field in the Southern Provinces,
04:17where there are continuous pillars and large investments.
04:23I think this initiative highlights the great work
04:26that His Majesty the King is doing in all areas,
04:30and after years of returning to my country,
04:33then returning again to Morocco,
04:35I see that Morocco is moving,
04:37where the Kingdom is seeing positive development,
04:40thanks to the royal decisions.
04:44The Moroccan Diplomacy Forum in the Sahara
04:46is an international platform for discussion on strategic issues in Morocco,
04:50in addition to the search for economic and institutional transformations
04:54through forums and calls.
04:56The forum also highlights the development programs in the Sahara,
05:00which have become a model for international and regional diplomacy.
05:06About the importance of this forum,
05:08which is a meeting place for exchange and thinking
05:11between prominent figures in the diplomatic, economic and cultural spheres,
05:15we are joined by Mr. Saeed Al-Khomsi,
05:17President of the Moroccan Jihad Foundation.
05:19Welcome, sir, and thank you for inviting us to the program.
05:22Welcome, Mr. Mullah, and welcome to our viewers.
05:25So, the importance of such meetings,
05:27which bring together several actors from the political, financial, economic,
05:31and cultural spheres in drawing up goals,
05:33as well as thinking about the future of the African continent
05:36and the roles of the Kingdom in establishing a new phase of cooperation.
05:40I think, Mr. Saeed, that the importance of this forum,
05:44and this forum in particular,
05:46is that the southern region, especially the city of Dakla and Ayoun,
05:50has become two international platforms
05:54for many forums in various fields.
05:59And I believe that the importance of these forums,
06:03can be summarized in three points.
06:07The first point is that all public policies,
06:13all public actions in general,
06:16which are pre-established to benefit from the development
06:22and expansion of the discussion circle with the activists,
06:25the academics, the politicians, the civilians, and others,
06:29are ultimately given public action.
06:36The second point is that the self-government project
06:44has several aspects.
06:47And the contemplator,
06:49I mean, the issue of 25 years for the rule of His Majesty the King,
06:52and 10 years for the release of the southern regional economic model.
06:56I believe that the high-level projects for the southern regional economic model,
07:02a large part of which is a downgrade of the self-government in its economic sector.
07:08More than that, I say that the issue of the self-government
07:14has been downgraded in its economic sector,
07:17and in its social sector.
07:19Now there is a discussion only in the narrow corner of the international political sector.
07:24Therefore, Morocco has noticed,
07:27and we go back to the third point,
07:29I believe that Morocco has noticed since 1975 until now,
07:33that the strategic goal of creating this issue of the Sahara issue
07:39was to disrupt the development cycle in general.
07:43I believe that from 1975 until 1999,
07:48we lived what we can call the political-military alliance,
07:51the political-military-field rapprochement.
07:54I mean, since the beginning,
07:56I mean, what we called in Morocco the new era,
07:58I mean, the 25th century,
08:00I mean, Morocco has lowered its strategic project
08:05in the development of the land and the human being,
08:08and cut the way for those who believed that this action would disrupt the entire system.
08:14The third axis is the radiation.
08:18Now it has become an international radiation.
08:20We used to know it in sports, in the city of interior,
08:22we knew it in tourism, in the Ayoun and other southern regions.
08:26Now, these areas are experiencing radiation, not nationally.
08:30Now, the interior, the Ayoun, and the rest of the south of Morocco
08:36are experiencing international radiation,
08:38and perhaps in some stations,
08:40it is stronger than the radiation in Dar Al-Bayda, Al-Rabat, Tanja, and Marrakesh.
08:44Therefore, this initiative has a technical benefit for the development of health,
08:49but it also has a strategic benefit.
08:51And this, of course, leads me to the financial question,
08:53this role that these initiatives play,
08:55not only in preparing the development model for the Kingdom,
08:58and the achievements of the Kingdom at the level of the southern region,
09:00but also in thinking about the future of the African continent,
09:03in preparing the roles that the Kingdom plays in assisting a group of countries
09:08in perhaps exporting this pioneering experience,
09:11I mean, in terms of development, to other countries in the region,
09:14and also further away from the region.
09:16True, I mean, when you say that Morocco is the gate of Africa,
09:19and the Sahara is the gate of Africa from within Morocco.
09:22Yes.
09:23This is the first thing.
09:24The second thing, in my opinion,
09:26is to build this model in the southern regions,
09:29whether at the field level,
09:31I mean, the major projects that we know of,
09:34or in its human part,
09:37for scientists, nurses,
09:39nurses, sports clubs, and others,
09:42it gives a living model that can be marketed in Africa.
09:47This means that now we are not talking in the field of theory,
09:49the African brothers are talking to us in the field.
09:52Then, this link between Morocco and Africa
09:56is definitely going through the southern regions of the Kingdom.
10:00Therefore, the southern regions of the Kingdom are being prepared,
10:05and a kind of independence is being achieved
10:09over the capital Rabat, the capital of Dar al-Bayda,
10:11and the capital of Tanja al-Marrakech,
10:12in the holding of such institutions,
10:14even more than that.
10:15The southern regions may become,
10:17and we started with this,
10:18the southern regions are a chain of thinking and interaction,
10:21but also, for example,
10:23from the middle income,
10:24the preparation of the infrastructure,
10:26the road,
10:27now,
10:28Tiznit Al-Ayoulu,
10:30Tiznit Al-Dakhla,
10:32and Gaimar,
10:34Mauritania, and others.
10:36This means that now we are building
10:38a model that is not only theoretical,
10:41but a field model
10:45for projects that can be carried out in Africa.
10:49Therefore, now we are not talking about the capital of Africa,
10:52perhaps it is Dar al-Dakhla and Al-Ayoulu.
10:54Therefore,
10:55I believe that this kind of activity,
10:57this kind of diplomacy,
11:01is at the same time,
11:03as I said before,
11:04a radiation,
11:05but also a foundation for an African experience
11:08in the building of a shared humanity,
11:13a shared economic,
11:15and a shared development.
11:17Therefore, now,
11:18sometimes,
11:20as I said before,
11:22Morocco came out
11:24in the Sahara issue
11:26from a logic
11:28that we defend and respond to the action,
11:31to a foundational logic,
11:33perhaps independent even on the nature of the subject,
11:37now what is happening in Al-Dakhla and Al-Ayoulu
11:40is independent of any other discussion.
11:43Therefore, the battle has gone far.
11:45And now,
11:46Morocco's previous experiences,
11:49not only in the economic field,
11:51until we talk about the development of humanity,
11:53we talk about energy,
11:54we talk about some of the major projects
11:56that Morocco has carried out and launched,
11:59have now become models
12:01that can be carried out in Africa
12:04through the land area of the Kingdom of Morocco,
12:07which is the South of Morocco.
12:09Yes, this geographical extension, as you said,
12:11and the nature of the topics that are discussed,
12:13does not limit to a specific field of knowledge,
12:16but it includes what is economic, social, health,
12:19we noticed a week ago,
12:21the establishment of an African institution
12:24for health and health sciences,
12:26what is security,
12:27all the challenges that perhaps
12:29the African continent is facing,
12:32especially in the southern regions,
12:34and as if there is a constant desire
12:36to confront these challenges,
12:38which are of course in rapid development.
12:40This is a part of the report,
12:43which was an expression of the strategic dimension.
12:46Yes.
12:47There are those who believe that
12:49in the southern regions,
12:51the discussion will remain closed
12:53on the issue of the land unit of the Kingdom.
12:56This topic has now been,
12:58as I said,
12:59the self-government in its economic and social sector
13:02has been lowered.
13:04Now, the regions,
13:06the southern regions of the Kingdom
13:08play their natural role,
13:10which some people did not want.
13:13They wanted to narrow the discussion
13:15on the issue of the land unit.
13:17Now, the southern regions of the Kingdom
13:19have overcome this,
13:21it has become part of the past,
13:23and part of history,
13:25and play their natural role
13:27in building Africa.
13:29Now, when you find in the southern regions
13:31conferences on health, climate,
13:33culture, knowledge exchange,
13:37health aspects,
13:39this means that,
13:41as I said at the beginning,
13:43the southern regions of the Kingdom
13:45have become a platform for sharing,
13:47exchange of experience,
13:49and building models for real African issues,
13:51instead of being intended
13:53to play a narrow role,
13:55to narrow the discussion
13:57on the issue of the land unit.
13:59That is why I said that
14:01I strongly defend this idea,
14:03and say that there are models
14:05that have succeeded
14:07in lowering the self-government
14:09in its economic and social sector.
14:11And the sector that remains
14:13is a sector that,
14:15with time,
14:17whether the other party chooses
14:19to merge or not,
14:21will be...
14:23on the level of infrastructure,
14:25on the level of projects,
14:27on the level of human development indicators,
14:29on the level of education,
14:31on the level of competencies,
14:33on the level of experience production.
14:35And now, this model,
14:37because the model of developing
14:39the southern regions,
14:41its main feature is that
14:43it is not a model only for the southern regions,
14:45but in two parts of it,
14:47it is a model directed to Africa,
14:49directed to competencies in Africa.
14:51It is not a model only for the southern regions.
14:53It is a medical college
14:55for the children of Africa.
14:57And I attended
14:59the official launch of
15:01the African Academy of Health Sciences,
15:03and I saw a number of initiatives
15:05regarding health services,
15:07but also regarding the formation
15:09of the African region.
15:11Before we proceed with the discussion,
15:13let's go to the second part.
15:15From the city of Dakhla,
15:17we move to the capital city of Fes,
15:19the capital city of Fes,
15:21the capital city of Fes,
15:23the capital city of Fes,
15:25the capital city of Fes,
15:27the capital city of Fes,
15:29the capital city of Fes,
15:31the capital city of Fes,
15:33the capital city of Fes,
15:35the capital city of Fes,
15:37the capital city of Fes,
15:39the capital city of Fes,
15:41the capital city of Fes,
15:43the capital city of Fes,
15:45the capital city of Fes,
15:47a group of thinkers,
15:49state leaders,
15:51and decision-makers,
15:53and representatives of the civil society
15:55and religious leaders
15:57in the framework of the meetings
15:59of the Ur-Middle University in Fes
16:01about the alliance of civilizations.
16:03This is a historic day.
16:05We are all honored.
16:07This message is for me.
16:09Today,
16:11Fes is the holy place
16:13for this message of the whole world.
16:15This is the first course
16:17in the world
16:19of the alliance of civilizations in Hawaii.
16:21It was created in Fes.
16:23There are hundreds, thousands of students
16:25and personalities who are already writing
16:27the future of tomorrow.
16:29This future will have a Moroccan imprint.
16:31In this meeting,
16:33the belief in the ability of collective action
16:35to restore confidence in the future
16:37and to strengthen confidence within societies
16:39and to revive confidence
16:41as a foundation that is not raised
16:43among nations.
16:45Everyone is promoting
16:47the pioneering policy
16:49of His Excellency
16:51in the framework of the alliance of civilizations,
16:53in the framework of tolerance,
16:55in the framework of
16:57the exchange
16:59between religions and cultures,
17:01and in the framework
17:03of co-existence
17:05for a world
17:07that
17:09is
17:11under peace,
17:13security and security.
17:15In order to strengthen
17:17the culture of dialogue
17:19as a tool to strengthen the strength
17:21between nations,
17:23the chair of the United Nations
17:25for the alliance of civilizations
17:27was inaugurated,
17:29which was decided to be established
17:31during the ninth round
17:33of the International Forum
17:35for the Alliance of Civilizations
17:37of the United Nations
17:39It is the first chair
17:41to be created by the United Nations
17:43in the world,
17:45and it is an honor for the Middle East University
17:47to host this chair
17:49and to chair this chair
17:51with a group of colleagues
17:53and specialists from all countries of the world.
17:55This chair seeks
17:57to build a single human family
17:59and a social home
18:01that is part of the shared
18:03branches that bring people together
18:05and part of the history of this
18:07country,
18:09which has always been
18:11the capital of the civilizational alliance
18:13and cultural diversity.
18:15The Middle East University
18:17met in Fes
18:19about the civilizational alliance
18:21in addition to the official
18:23inauguration of the chair
18:25of the civilizational alliance
18:27that was established in cooperation
18:29with the civilizational alliance
18:31of the United Nations.
18:33The distribution of the Middle East
18:35is a major issue.
18:37We have another space
18:39for the meeting
18:41to bring together
18:43activists from different
18:45projects, nationalities
18:47and religions
18:49to think about the current
18:51problems that are
18:53occurring in the world
18:55and not a specific geographical location.
18:57Also, the importance
18:59of the dialogue
19:01between civilizations
19:03and political academics
19:05to think about the current
19:07problems of the international system
19:09and also to think about ways
19:11to get out of the current conflict.
19:13Of course, Mr. President.
19:15First of all, this is not new
19:17to Morocco.
19:19Now, the dialogue
19:21between civilizations
19:23is a matter
19:25that the Moroccans
19:27use the term
19:29to say that the Moroccans
19:31used to live the so-called
19:33civilizational coexistence.
19:35Civilizational coexistence is
19:37to accept the opposite.
19:39The Moroccans forgot this matter.
19:41This is our history.
19:43This is a matter
19:45that has been written about a lot.
19:47At the current institutional level,
19:49first of all, this is an honor
19:51for Morocco and also a recognition
19:53for Morocco.
19:55Morocco is the first chair
19:57for the dialogue between civilizations.
19:59In 2001,
20:01I think,
20:03there was a dialogue
20:05between civilizations
20:07between the United Nations
20:09and the United Nations
20:11from 2001 to 2024.
20:13We are in 2025,
20:15a quarter of a century later.
20:17For Morocco to have
20:19this honor
20:21is not only a coincidence
20:23on its part,
20:25considering that Morocco
20:27is not a place for civilizational dialogue,
20:29but it is a place for civilizational coexistence.
20:31In Moroccan history,
20:33this question was not
20:35religious, Jewish, Muslim, or Christian.
20:37This question was not
20:39in the collective imagination of the Moroccans.
20:41It was not a question.
20:43The places of worship for all religions
20:45were respected and sacred.
20:47The convictions
20:49and opinions
20:51were respected by all.
20:53The common thing
20:55was not social or cultural.
20:57Even now,
20:59and this is something everyone can say,
21:01when you talk about musical places,
21:03you find that they are
21:05different in Morocco.
21:15This means that the features
21:17of public life
21:19were not distinguished
21:21by the general features.
21:23On the other hand,
21:25the embrace of Fas
21:27is not new
21:29or strange.
21:31Fas has always been
21:33the symbol of civilizational coexistence.
21:35Thirdly,
21:37the new thing is that
21:39academicians, politicians,
21:41decision-makers,
21:43activists, and economists
21:45also meet in this way.
21:47Now, as we follow around the world,
21:49the economic and cultural systems
21:51and the political systems
21:53have become
21:55one integrated system.
21:57When I consume something material,
21:59I am ruled by a cultural background,
22:01a social background,
22:03a historical background,
22:05an ethnic background,
22:07and multiple backgrounds
22:09to produce
22:11what is now called
22:13the human action.
22:15Morocco has always been,
22:17and will always be,
22:19not a political achievement.
22:21This matter of civilizational dialogue,
22:23of human coexistence,
22:25of acceptance of others,
22:27as I said,
22:29is not against.
22:31I only accept you
22:33because
22:35there is a conviction
22:37that you have the right to exist
22:39as I have the right to exist.
22:41What the world is living now
22:43is a mixture of wars.
22:45In the 21st century,
22:47as Plato said,
22:49Europe will have wars like this.
22:51Europe of the Enlightenment,
22:53the French Revolution, the Civil War.
22:55Now, what appears
22:57is that the need for humanity
22:59is greater than
23:01any time in the past
23:03for this philosophy,
23:05for this spirit,
23:07which Morocco has maintained
23:09not only now, but also in the years of luxury
23:11and the state.
23:13Even during the colonial period,
23:15our destiny
23:17was always
23:19not in this question.
23:21This is an urgent question.
23:23The evidence that was confirmed
23:25by a group of attendees,
23:27especially Miguel Angel Moratinos,
23:29the representative of the UN Security Council
23:31for civilizational dialogue,
23:33confirmed the contradictions of these areas
23:35in the Kingdom of Morocco,
23:37which always seeks the interests of the countries
23:39and not to interfere in the affairs of the countries.
23:41This confirms its place
23:43in strengthening
23:45this dialogue, which is strongly believed
23:47in these customs.
23:49That's right.
23:51If you look at the map of conflicts
23:53in the world,
23:55and how Morocco
23:57stands out from these conflicts,
23:59those who read the political narrations
24:01may think that Morocco
24:03has this aspect,
24:05Morocco has always been
24:07a state,
24:09as a state,
24:11a state that belongs
24:13to what is called the great history of humanity,
24:15that it has always been a state
24:17that shared humanity
24:19in the area of peace,
24:21not in the area of Aziz al-Haram.
24:23Therefore, it is not strange
24:25for Morocco to host such forums.
24:27Then the second thing is that
24:29this is not
24:31a narrow
24:33conclusion of the Moroccans.
24:35Morocco now,
24:37in what the world is experiencing
24:39from conflicts that have taken
24:41either a sectarian distance,
24:43a religious distance, or an economic distance,
24:45Morocco has what it offers
24:47to the world.
24:49Now, it is not a matter of saying
24:51that we are a state of peace.
24:53Now, we are convinced that
24:55we have what we offer to the world.
24:57In some regional
24:59or even international
25:01disputes,
25:03Morocco does not only participate
25:05as a meeting platform
25:07for the parties,
25:09but because it has a human
25:11effort to deal with the differences.
25:13This effort can be exported
25:15to others,
25:17it can be benefited from by others,
25:19it can be benefited from by humanity.
25:21The coexistence of religions
25:23is something that Morocco has in its grasp.
25:25More than that,
25:27the model that is now being used in the world
25:29is the model of Meknes,
25:31the model of Morocco.
25:33How is a state in the Islamic West
25:35called?
25:37It is called the Middle East.
25:39Yes, of course.
25:41This is what Al-Qassi and Al-Din witness
25:43in all the meetings of the Kingdom.
25:45I thank you very much.
25:47Thank you, Mr. Saeed Al-Khomsi,
25:49President of Morocco Al-Jihad.
25:51With this, we have reached the end of our time
25:53for the Media 1 report.
25:55We hope to see you again next time.
