00:00Good evening and welcome to Mediain TV, thank you for joining us for a new newscast.
00:20The cooperation between Rabat and Madrid in the field of the integration of migrants has given birth to many fruitful collaborations.
00:30This Wafera project has also been saluted by the Minister of Economic Inclusion, Employment and Competences.
00:36Saudi Arabia wishes to help the new Syrian authorities to obtain the lifting of Western sanctions.
00:44The two nations want to open a new chapter in their relationship.
00:47The United States has stopped the expulsion of hundreds of clandestine migrants.
00:53An expulsion operation that occurs only a few days after the start of Donald Trump's presidency.
00:58His Majesty, King Mohammed VI appoints the new members of the National Commission for the Control and Protection of Personal Data.
01:09Abdelaziz Amraoui and Majid El Hlou are two members appointed on the proposal of the head of government.
01:15Zakaria Ouled and Fatemeh Saeedi were proposed by the President of the House of Representatives.
01:20And finally, Hassan Madi and Mohamed Boudoun were appointed on the proposal of the President of the House of Councilors.
01:26His Majesty, King Mohammed VI appointed Omar Sarrochini, President of the CNDP, on November 17, 2018, and wanted to renew him for a second term.
01:37The Minister of Economic Inclusion and Employment has highlighted this Friday the importance of the WAFIRA project.
01:45A project that promotes a model of human integration and professional mobility.
01:50Explanations with Soheil Jalil.
01:54The WAFIRA program is a model of circular mobility in Morocco and Spain.
02:00The dynamic cooperation between Rabat and Madrid in the field of immigration integration has given birth to a fruitful collaboration,
02:07allowing the integration of seasonal working women.
02:10Thanks to the WAFIRA program, many women have been able to thrive by developing income-generating projects,
02:16thus transforming their professional journey and their daily lives, reports the Minister of Economic Inclusion of the Small Business, Employment and Skills, Younes Khoury.
02:29WAFIRA allows rural workers to acquire international experience, to enhance their skills and to generate income,
02:35while contributing to the development of their community of origin.
02:38We also aim to launch a second phase, which will be part of the national strategy of international professional mobility,
02:46focused on the training of candidates, data management, and an approach based on fair partnerships between Morocco and its partners.
02:59The Spanish Minister of Social Security and Immigration Inclusion, Elma Saiz Delgado,
03:05has described the WAFIRA program as a flagship initiative of international cooperation in the field of migratory management.
03:13209 women participated and 66% of them have really improved their financial skills,
03:28which is very important, and 100% of them want to participate again in the program.
03:37It is a good formula for both countries, for Spain and Morocco, but above all for the people.
03:47Thanks to this program, the economy of Morocco and Spain improves, and above all, it is a life project for people.
03:59The WAFIRA program is a reference program.
04:02We want to strengthen it and make it even bigger.
04:06Our ambitions are big, and we also want to extend this cooperation in these reference models to other areas with Morocco
04:14to continue to promote tools and instruments for legal mobility between Morocco and the European Union.
04:22It should be noted that WAFIRA is part of the continuity of collaborations already established between the two countries,
04:28notably through circular migration, one of the main representatives of which is the WAFIRA,
04:33which regulates the collective management of the original contracts.
04:37Thanks to this initiative, nearly 18,800 people, mainly women, will go to Spain in 2025 to occupy seasonal positions,
04:46while benefiting from an attentive management of their working conditions and their rights.
04:52Discussions on the organic water project relating to the conditions and modalities of the exercise of the right to strike continue in the Chamber of Advisers.
05:00The Minister of Economic Inclusion salutes the climate of responsibility in which these discussions are taking place.
05:05Explanations with Dina Marini.
05:11After a series of meetings organized by the Ministry of Economic Inclusion and Employment,
05:16discussions on the project of law relating to the modalities of the right to strike continue,
05:21this time in front of the Commission of Education and Social Affairs of the Chamber of Advisers, in the presence of Younes Khoury.
05:28The objective is to propose a text that realizes a balance between the rights of strikers and those of companies.
05:36It is a very important detailed discussion because it allows the actors,
05:41and in particular the advisers and social partners represented in these chambers,
05:46to express their position in a more precise way.
05:49And overall, what I draw from it is that we need to make a collective effort
05:53to be able to make amendments on critical issues,
05:57especially on the definition of the strike,
06:01to be able to be sure that this definition excludes no one
06:06and that it can also reflect the democratic momentum of our country.
06:11We have also discussed the need to precisely balance all the provisions
06:18in order to be able to serve both the interests of the strikers,
06:23but also of the company, the freedom of work and that of society.
06:27What is important is that without a debate on this precision,
06:31even if it takes us many hours,
06:33we will not be able to have a text that is up to the task.
06:37And so the fact that the debate takes place with so much responsibility and expertise,
06:44but also with precision,
06:46allows us to go towards something,
06:49that is to say a much more improved version,
06:52which will ultimately be at the service of society.
06:57The essential points raised by social partners and advisers during this session
07:02have been saluted by the Minister,
07:04in particular those relating to the definition of the strike and the categories it includes.
07:09These points essentially aim to ensure that the text of the law
07:13respects the democratic and legal principles of Morocco.
07:18As you know, the project of an organic law relating to the right to strike
07:23is currently arousing many debates.
07:25After many discussions on this project,
07:27we are now embarking on a detailed process that requires deep work
07:31to analyze the amendments of this law with the Minister
07:34in order to fully understand the issues
07:36and to obtain an overall vision with the government.
07:40In addition to the preamble,
07:42the article 2 of the draft law that defines the strike
07:45and the article 3 that evokes the implications of this regulatory law
07:49have been the subject of many interventions by parliamentary groups.
07:53Many of them have called for a thorough examination of their content
07:57in order to avoid any possible problems of interpretation.
08:01In addition to the preamble,
08:03the article 2 of the draft law that defines the strike
08:06have been the subject of many interventions by parliamentary groups
08:11in order to avoid any possible problems of interpretation.
08:14The head of Saudi diplomacy said on Friday
08:16that the Kingdom is trying to help the new Syrian authorities
08:19to obtain the lifting of Western sanctions.
08:21Prince Faisal bin Falhan was received by the Syrian leader Ahmad al-Sharaa.
08:25The two nations want to open a new chapter in their relationship.
08:28This is the first visit in Syria of the Saudi Prime Minister
08:31since the fall of Bashar al-Assad.
08:33The sanctions after the fall of Bashar al-Assad
08:35and the EU must mention this subject
08:37during their next meeting in Brussels on January 27.
08:42The United Nations denounces the use of war methods by Israel,
08:45the illegal use of force by the state in the occupied Jordan.
08:49In Jenin, the Israeli operations arouse serious concerns
08:53when an unnecessary or disproportionate use of force
08:56is declared.
08:57Taminel Khetem, spokesman for the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in Geneva.
09:04The distribution of humanitarian aid brings a breath of hope
09:06but the situation remains catastrophic.
09:08In the Gaza Strip, hundreds of trucks of fuel, food and equipment
09:12have been arriving since Sunday.
09:14However, the needs are huge in this territory,
09:17partially destroyed by the Israeli army.
09:20Famine is imminent, malnutrition is endemic
09:23and the health system is collapsed.
09:25The Hamas has published the names of four soldiers
09:28who must be released this Saturday.
09:30An announcement made in the context of a second series
09:33of hostage exchange
09:35in accordance with the Treaty of Trep in the Gaza Strip.
09:38The Israeli Prime Minister's office confirmed
09:40shortly after receiving a list without specifying
09:43whether it belonged to the army.
09:50Israel indicates the withdrawal of its troops from the Gaza Strip
09:53will continue beyond the 60-day deadline set by the ceasefire.
09:56A ceasefire that must be completed this Sunday.
09:59Tel Aviv estimates that Lebanon had not fully respected its commitments
10:03and according to the Israeli Prime Minister,
10:05the ceasefire agreement has not been fulfilled.
10:08The withdrawal process will continue in accordance with the United States.
10:15After making a strong point of his electoral campaign,
10:18Donald Trump has launched his program of expulsion of clandestine clans.
10:23The United States has arrested 538 migrants
10:26and has expelled hundreds.
10:28Explanations with Shem Hafez.
10:32Trump's threats continue.
10:34A few hours after taking office,
10:36the American president announced new drastic restrictions
10:39on immigration and asylum rights in the United States.
10:42The most important mass deportation operation in history is underway.
10:47This is what Caroline Levitt,
10:49spokeswoman for the White House, said.
10:51She announced on X that the Trump administration
10:54has arrested more than 500 illegal criminal migrants,
10:57adding that hundreds had been expelled in military planes.
11:01Deciding to put in place his migratory policies,
11:04Trump declared a state of national emergency
11:06at the southern border with Mexico
11:08and planned to send his army there.
11:10No expulsion promised by Trump
11:12has yet been reported along the 3,100 kilometers of border.
11:16Only foreigners were expelled,
11:18arrested before the US president's investiture last Monday.
11:22In anticipation of the expulsions,
11:24a dozen refusals are underway
11:26in northern Mexico at the border with the United States.
11:29For non-Mexican foreigners,
11:31the Mexican president, Claudia Sheinbaum,
11:34envisaged humanitarian assistance and repatriation.
11:37She also said that two welcoming centers
11:39should be completed on Thursday evening
11:41and the others will be completely ready
11:43by the end of the week.
11:45Estimates indicate that 6 million Mexicans
11:48live without papers in the United States,
11:50in addition to the 12 million legally settled,
11:52binationals and Americans of Mexican origin.
11:55And even these can be rejected
11:57following the signature by Donald Trump
11:59of a decree on land rights.
12:02A principle, however,
12:03devoted to the 14th amendment of the American Constitution
12:07and applied for more than a decade and a half in the United States.
12:10This decree aims to prohibit the federal government
12:13from delivering passports,
12:15citizenship certificates
12:17or any other official document to children
12:19born in the United States,
12:21whose mother is in an irregular or temporary situation
12:23and whose father is not an American citizen
12:25or permanent resident.
12:27This measure was immediately contested in court
12:29by 22 American states,
12:31including California and New York,
12:33and several associations.
12:35They tried several procedures,
12:37pointing to its unconstitutionality.
12:39In Washington, a federal judge
12:41temporarily suspended the repeal of this law.
12:44Trump himself admitted
12:46to waiting for protests in front of the courts.
12:51Vladimir Putin says he is ready to speak to Donald Trump,
12:53but is waiting for signs from Washington
12:55to indicate today the Kremlin.
12:57Putin is ready, we are waiting for signs to declare.
13:00Dmitry Peskov who added that the conflict in Ukraine
13:02does not depend on oil prices
13:04in response to the speech held on Thursday
13:06by the American president.
13:11In Davos, the president of the European Central Bank
13:14spoke about the declining economy of the EU.
13:17Christine Lagarde also responded
13:19to Donald Trump's threats
13:21related to customs taxes.
13:23The explanations with Khaled Abnani.
13:26This Friday in Davos,
13:28the president of the European Central Bank,
13:30Christine Lagarde,
13:32indirectly responded to Donald Trump's intervention on Thursday.
13:34The latter had threatened the old continent
13:36with an economic war.
13:38Lagarde called on the European Union
13:40and each central bank,
13:42whether European or American,
13:44to make decisions based on economic conditions
13:46specific to its region
13:48and not on the interests of other countries.
13:54What I believe is that Trump
13:56examines very carefully
13:58the excess in relation to the current account deficit
14:00and the commercial balance.
14:02In particular, by focusing on the latter.
14:04And I think you have to look very carefully
14:06beyond that.
14:08As Kristalina said,
14:10you have to look at the good exchanges,
14:12you have to look at the exchange of services,
14:14you have to look at the capital account.
14:16It can't just be black or white.
14:18What is true is that
14:20negotiations are needed,
14:22commercial relations must be organized
14:24in a framework that gives confidence to partners.
14:26It cannot be, you know,
14:28to remove all the rules
14:30and to ignore the institutions
14:32and their particularities.
14:34On her side,
14:36the FMI's general director
14:38advised the European Union
14:40to be inspired by the United States,
14:42which, according to her,
14:44has a culture of confidence
14:46while Europe has a culture of modesty.
14:48We have been seeing
14:50over the last year
14:52an increase in protectionist measures,
14:54customs rights,
14:56as well as measures
14:58of industrial policy.
15:00And we have seen countries turn
15:02into politically aligned countries
15:04in their commercial practices.
15:06Do you know which countries
15:08get the best results?
15:10Well, it's the countries
15:12that are friends with everybody.
15:16For the FMI's boss,
15:18three elements economically
15:20hinder Europe.
15:22The absence of a union of capital markets,
15:24investments that do not sell
15:26to the most productive companies
15:28and energy costs.
15:30For the FMI,
15:32the European Union should focus
15:34on the development of its unique market
15:36in order to stimulate competitiveness.
15:38Tunisia's appeal court
15:40reduced the sentence
15:42to one year and six months.
15:44Sonia Dehmany's long-term prison sentence
15:46has been in detention since May 11, 2024.
15:48The lawyer was sentenced in October
15:50to two years in prison
15:52on the basis of a presidential decree
15:54on false news.
15:56The journalist was arrested live
15:58and pursued in five cases.
16:00She has repeatedly mentioned in the media
16:02the situation of migrants in Tunisia
16:04and the problem of racism.
16:06We stay in Tunisia
16:08to celebrate the 173rd anniversary
16:10of the abolition of slavery.
16:12Human rights NGOs
16:14have gathered in Tunisia
16:16the families of detainees who fought
16:18against racism and discrimination.
16:20These detainees were arrested
16:22within a few months.
16:24Details in this report by Najwa Bechat.
16:27To celebrate the 23rd of January,
16:29the national day of the abolition
16:31of slavery in Tunisia,
16:33human rights NGOs
16:35have gathered the families
16:37of activist detainees
16:39who fought against racism
16:41and discrimination
16:43to testify to them in Tunisia.
16:45These people are in prison
16:47because they expressed their support
16:49and solidarity with the migrants
16:51despite the fact that the state
16:53has spoken a lot about the role
16:55of human rights NGOs in Tunisia.
16:57We respond to the letters
16:59of the special rapporteurs.
17:01But we now find these people
17:03who are in prison
17:05who represent associations
17:07that are already partners of the state
17:09who have done a lot of work
17:11with all state organizations
17:13at the regional and national level.
17:15But now, just to justify
17:17the official discriminatory receipts
17:19against migrants,
17:21we find these people in prison.
17:23President Mnemti
17:25was arrested in May 2023.
17:27A dream that led him to prison.
17:29Mnemti, my dream,
17:31is the name of the association
17:33that she founded
17:35and that she has been running
17:37since 2013
17:39to fight against racism in Tunisia.
17:41Her arrest raised concerns
17:43within the black community.
17:45Her brother, the famous artist
17:47Sleh Mosbeh
17:49and his niece Saba Mosbeh
17:51denounced the arrests
17:53of all human rights activists
17:55and defenders.
17:57We are living
17:59a real tragedy.
18:01My sister Sardi is in a real prison.
18:03But we, her family,
18:05we live in a large
18:07virtual prison.
18:09I don't have the right to visit her
18:11because it's only
18:13direct links.
18:15It's my aunt, my father,
18:17her sisters and her son
18:19and I have information
18:21about her.
18:23She is fine.
18:25I think everyone who
18:27was held hostage
18:29because we don't know
18:31the reasons until today.
18:33At least I don't know the reasons.
18:35I would say that these people
18:37who are in prison
18:39have no justification
18:41for what is happening.
18:43I am here for a total mobilization.
18:45To commemorate this day,
18:47a documentary has been broadcast
18:49that tells the story of the Hamdenatig family.
18:51Dali and his son Karim,
18:5339 years old,
18:55cannot stand
18:57this stigma that means
18:59to cross or to be released.
19:01In 2017,
19:03he asked the Medenine City Court
19:05in the south of Tunisia
19:07to finally be able
19:09to get rid of him.
19:11On October 14th,
19:13with the judgment made in favor of both men,
19:15they went from theory to practice
19:17thanks to the law of 2018
19:19against racial discrimination.
19:21Militants in civil society
19:23claim that
19:25a new battle is won
19:27but not the war.
19:31More than 9 million Moroccans
19:33over the age of 15
19:35are illiterate.
19:37To put an end to this scourge,
19:39the National Agency for the Fight against Illiteracy
19:41aims to expand its targeting strategy.
19:43This is the story of Dinem Rini.
19:45More than 9 million Moroccans
19:47over the age of 15
19:49are illiterate.
19:51In this sense,
19:53Morocco has made notable efforts
19:55to reduce the rate of illiteracy
19:57and improve the quality of national education.
19:59These efforts have ended up paying off.
20:01The rate of illiteracy
20:03has seen a sharp decrease
20:05but it is still important.
20:07It is 24.8% today
20:09against 32%
20:1110 years ago.
20:17The National Agency for the Fight against Illiteracy
20:19aims to expand its targeting strategy
20:21by developing programs
20:23suitable for various groups
20:25such as farmers, artisans, sailors
20:27and merchants.
20:29The Agency will strive to strengthen
20:31its collaboration with the private sector
20:33which is called on to take an active part
20:35in this process.
20:37The Agency is doubling its efforts
20:39to facilitate the eradication
20:41of illiteracy.
20:43The creation of a training institute
20:45in the field of literacy
20:47aims to strengthen the skills
20:49of all involved actors.
20:51This institute aims to integrate
20:53information technology,
20:55notably by developing applications
20:57designed to be compatible
20:59and secure on phones.
21:01I learned to read
21:03thanks to this program.
21:05Now I am able to read and write
21:07numbers on the phone.
21:09I even learned to read the Koran.
21:15I learned to read what is written
21:17on advertising boards and public transport.
21:19I am also able to read
21:21the names of neighborhoods.
21:23And I am particularly happy
21:25because I also learned to read the Koran.
21:33On the other hand,
21:35the Agency has pleaded for the promotion
21:37of the effectiveness of the fight against illiteracy
21:39programs.
21:41It proposes the implementation
21:43of a contract between the State and the Agency
21:45in order to define strategic objectives
21:47according to an appropriate calendar.
21:49Concerning the funding of the programs,
21:51the State's subsidies represent
21:53about 84% of the total resources
21:55of the National Agency for the Fight
21:57against Illiteracy,
21:59with an addition of 14%
22:01from the European Union.
22:03With the increase
22:05of treatment costs, generic drugs
22:07are presented as an economic solution,
22:09an alternative allowing
22:11to be treated effectively
22:13but at a reduced price.
22:15This is a report by Ayub Daraza and Drez Bayot.
22:19Moroccan health authorities
22:21put on generic drugs
22:23the objective of reducing
22:25the cost of treatment and facilitating
22:27the access of citizens to care.
22:29And this thanks to more than 3,000 generic drugs
22:31available on the market.
22:33The use of these drugs by Moroccans
22:35remains, however, low.
22:37The consumption rate does not exceed 40%,
22:39contrary to other countries such as
22:41the United States or France,
22:43where this rate reaches 80%.
22:49Generic drugs respect the same
22:51quality standards and the same composition
22:53as active ingredients.
22:55The only difference lies in their price,
22:57which is less than 35%.
23:01Generic drugs must present
23:03the same bioavailability
23:05and the same bioequivalence
23:07as original drugs.
23:09They can only obtain an authorization
23:11to be put on the market
23:13if they rigorously respect
23:15the quality standards.
23:17According to health professionals,
23:19these generic drugs offer
23:21many advantages.
23:23They also remind us that they are
23:25just as effective as
23:27brand drugs,
23:29but at a much more affordable price,
23:31which makes them accessible
23:33to low-income people.
23:35Despite these advantages,
23:37many patients remain skeptical
23:39about the quality of generic drugs,
23:41fearing that they do not meet
23:43the same standards as original drugs.
23:53In Morocco, pharmacists
23:55are not allowed to replace
23:57brand drugs with generic drugs,
23:59unlike in other countries.
24:05Many people believe that
24:07generic drugs are less expensive
24:09and less effective.
24:11However, this is not the case.
24:13Brand drugs remain on the market
24:15longer, which allows them
