00:00Hello everyone, I am pleased to see you for this new information meeting on Medea TV.
00:23Morocco has a new roadmap for employment.
00:28The new national strategy, which mobilizes a budget of 14 billion dirhams,
00:33was presented yesterday at the government council. Details at the beginning of this newspaper.
00:40It is a decisive week for the continent.
00:44The African heads of state are meeting this weekend in Addis Ababa
00:48among the issues designated a new president of the commission in a context marked by the multiplication of conflicts.
00:58After days of uncertainty, Hamas is ready to respect the ceasefire calendar in Gaza,
01:05which suggests a new exchange of hostages tomorrow against Palestinian prisoners.
01:11It was the horse of battle of the different governments of recent years.
01:17Without great results, the struggle against unemployment and the creation of jobs is necessary
01:23to absorb new arrivals on the labor market.
01:27The Arnauch government, in turn, presented yesterday a new roadmap.
01:32The national strategy for employment, revealed yesterday at the government council,
01:37will mobilize an envelope of 14 billion dirhams.
01:41This new strategy is based on three axes.
01:45Support for investment to support SMEs.
01:48Restructuring of active employment programs to include unemployed job seekers.
01:54And finally, a specific job offer for the rural environment.
02:00As I said earlier, it is a decisive week for the continent.
02:04The 38th annual summit of the African Union was given last Wednesday in Addis Ababa.
02:10The African heads of state are meeting this weekend in the Ethiopian capital.
02:15Among the issues designated a new president of the commission to succeed the Chadian Mossa Fakim Hamad
02:23in a context marked by the multiplication of conflicts on the continent.
02:29The war in Sudan, the resumption of fighting in the east of the RDC with a risk of regional escalation
02:36or six more countries suspended from the continental organization.
02:39The formal summit of the heads of state of the African Union will take place tomorrow.
02:44Three countries are disputing the chair of the presidency of the commission.
02:48These are Kenya, Djibouti and Madagascar.
02:55Our special correspondent in Addis Ababa, Oumarie Masbila,
02:58comes back on the issues of the 38th summit of the African Union.
03:01Together, we listen to her.
03:03The Media TV team is in Ethiopia and more precisely at the headquarters of the African Union in Addis Ababa.
03:11We support the 38th Ordinary Edition of the African Union Assembly
03:17which brings together heads of state and African governments.
03:20It is therefore a meeting with many issues.
03:24First of all, designate a new president of the commission to succeed the Chadian Mossa Fakim
03:30and therefore a meeting that will be marked by the elections to the presidency
03:34but also to the vice-presidency of the commission of the African Union.
03:38Moreover, it is one of the most coveted positions.
03:41Morocco is represented by the heavy weight of diplomacy and the world of communication.
03:48Morocco will have all the chances to win.
03:52Speaking of Morocco, the Moroccan delegation is here to reiterate
03:58in front of the Executive Council of the African Union
04:01the royal vision according to which the kingdom seeks to give leadership to Africa.
04:07Nassal Boleta, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Residents Abroad
04:12shed light on his speech on this royal vision
04:17according to which Morocco does not aim to acquire leadership in Africa
04:22but rather it is in Africa that the kingdom seeks to give leadership.
04:27Another important point is the elections of the five members of the Council of Peace and Security of the African Union.
04:35Algeria also did not succeed in obtaining a seat in the Council of Peace and Security of the African Union
04:41which it convoked to replace Morocco in office for three years.
04:46So why a lack of sufficient support from the member countries?
04:51Its candidacy did not get the majority required
04:55and new elections will therefore be organized soon in a delay of three to four weeks or more.
05:02This was Abdessamad Mountassir and Oumar Masbila from Addis Ababa.
05:07Institutional reforms of the African Union, implementation of the area of continental free trade,
05:13the conflicts in Sudan and in the east of the RDC,
05:16the challenges faced by the Pan-African organization are huge,
05:20says Ali El-Harechi, together listening to the Director of the Institute of Political, Legal and Social Sciences of Mondiapolis.
05:28The African Union is facing many conflicts and many reforms
05:33to be able to achieve the ultimate goal, i.e. to achieve the goals of the Agenda 2063.
05:40But until then, we must engage in an efficient and effective dynamic
05:48to first proceed with the reforms of the institutions,
05:51to sweep away a form of bureaucracy, sometimes a form of non-coordination between the different institutions,
06:00which sometimes blocks the action of the African Union.
06:03And this, of course, in the face of many conflicts, unfortunately,
06:07which take hostages our continent,
06:10the conflicts at the level of Central Africa, at the level of the USA, of the RDC,
06:16these are conflicts that trouble and murder our continent.
06:22So we must find solutions, we must bring solutions and internal solutions,
06:27i.e. that come from the African Union to be able to achieve, as I said,
06:32the objectives of a prosperous continent, of a continent that marks growth,
06:39but which has above all peace and security.
06:42So these are challenges of peace and security.
06:45These are also challenges of growth in relation to the SDCAF.
06:49The SDCAF, the Free Trade Zone, the African Common Market,
06:53in the image of other common markets in other continents,
06:56and which have allowed the success of states in a common and solidary registration to succeed together.
07:03So we must implement the SDCAF, which has been there since this Common Market,
07:09i.e. in its treaty, for three years, but the implementation is still taking time.
07:15So there are so many challenges, whether on the economic level,
07:18whether on the security level, or whether on the institutional level.
07:26So this is a summit that is coming, with, of course, elections that are very important
07:31and that interest us very closely.
07:34And Morocco, in the person of Latefa Akherbash,
07:37is the Vice-President of this African Union Commission.
07:42What reading to do and what role does Morocco play today within the organization?
07:46Answer with Bakary Semb, Regional Director of the Timbuktu Institute.
07:52First of all, I believe that Morocco can bring great added value
07:55in terms of its position on the continent,
07:58as a country that offers solutions and does not pose problems.
08:04In the sense that, look, when there was the crisis in the Sahel,
08:07Morocco proposed, through the Atlantic Initiative,
08:10to declare the Sahel countries, while remaining in a constructive dialogue with the countries of the CEDAO.
08:14Also in some countries of the region, Morocco continues to play this very important role,
08:20relying on its symbolic capital.
08:22And then Morocco has a particular status on the continent,
08:25that is to say, it has a role that facilitates the balance of the balance of power.
08:29That is to say, a key actor within the African Union,
08:33who works for synergies and who is today one of the few countries on the continent
08:38to be able to speak to everyone else.
08:40At some point, we need this balance,
08:42both in the Great Lakes, as you can see the current situation,
08:46in the Congo and in the east of this country,
08:49but also in the neighboring countries,
08:51but also in the Sahel, where Morocco benefits from a fairly large diplomatic capital.
08:55I think that this country will bring great added value
08:58in the construction of its synergies
09:00and go towards the resolution of conflicts in a consensual way,
09:04because the continent greatly needs it
09:06to get out of its security problems,
09:08go towards development and economic integration.
09:12Regarding international news,
09:14it is a storm that only holds one thread,
09:18but it could still resist.
09:20After days of uncertainty,
09:22Hamas is ready to respect the ceasefire calendar in Gaza,
09:26which suggests a new exchange of hostages
09:29against Palestinian prisoners tomorrow.
09:31In any case, Israel expects the Palestinian movement
09:34to release three hostages,
09:36at the risk of blowing up the truce.
09:39Threats that echo those of US President Donald Trump,
09:42for whom, I quote,
09:44hell would break loose on Gaza
09:47if Hamas did not release all Israeli hostages by tomorrow.
09:54This is the first trip of the head of Syrian diplomacy in Europe.
09:58After Aqaba in Jordan and Riyadh in Saudi Arabia,
10:02the international conference on Syria was held yesterday in Paris.
10:07Several countries took part.
10:09French President Emmanuel Macron
10:11called on the transition authorities
10:14to join the fight against Daesh.
10:17While the reconstruction of Syria
10:19is estimated at more than 400 billion dollars by the UN,
10:23the European Union says
10:25it is working on a rapid lift of economic sanctions
10:29in different sectors of activity in Syria.
10:36And then this telephone interview
10:38between the US President and his Russian counterpart,
10:41which continues to stir.
10:43The European Union wants to be part of the discussions
10:46on the end of the war in Ukraine.
10:48In any case, it is a call that could beat the cards
10:51after three years of Russo-Ukrainian war.
10:54More details with Raja Ingo.
10:58The break between Washington and Moscow
11:00seems to have now changed.
11:02Just three years ago,
11:04during the Russian invasion of Ukraine,
11:06the United States and the European Union
11:09spared no effort to isolate Moscow.
11:12Vladimir Putin, the master of the Kremlin,
11:15was even qualified by former US President Joe Biden
11:18as a bloodthirsty dictator.
11:20But this telephone conversation
11:22between the current US President Donald Trump
11:25and Vladimir Putin has changed everything.
11:28It marks the resumption of Russian-American relations
11:32and has surprised more than one.
11:35I was struck by the fact that the whole world
11:38fell into a kind of stupor
11:40and considers the telephone conversation
11:42that took place as something exceptional.
11:44This is exactly how we should communicate with Russia.
11:47It is probably for this reason that many in the West,
11:50starting with the leaders of the European Union,
11:52were stunned.
11:56For its part, the Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky,
11:59who also expressed his desire for peace
12:02to the US President,
12:04is keen to participate in the talks.
12:10It is important that everything does not happen
12:12according to Putin's plan,
12:14in which he wants to ensure
12:16that these negotiations are bilateral
12:18between him and the United States.
12:20As a sovereign country,
12:22we will simply not be able to accept
12:24any agreement without the Ukrainians.
12:28But the Kremlin assured Thursday
12:30that Ukraine would participate,
12:32in one way or another,
12:34in its future talks on peace.
12:36European countries, however,
12:38were very skeptical.
12:40Put aside during the discussions
12:42between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin
12:44on Ukraine,
12:46the Europeans warned Thursday
12:48that any peace agreement negotiated without them
12:50and Kiev would be doomed to failure.
12:52Nothing can be decided
12:54about Ukraine without Ukraine.
12:56And nothing can be decided
12:58without Europe,
13:00because the Russian aggression against Ukraine
13:02clearly affects European security.
13:06For Antonio Costa,
13:08the President of the European Council,
13:10peace in Ukraine must be
13:12more than a simple ceasefire.
13:14In this tense context,
13:16the Kremlin stated that there was
13:18at the moment no decision
13:20on the date of the meeting
13:22between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin
13:24and that it could take months.
13:28The UNICEF,
13:30which was alarmed yesterday
13:32by the increased serious violations
13:34of children's rights by parties
13:36to the conflict in the east
13:38of the Democratic Republic of Congo,
13:40in particular the rapes,
13:42on the ground,
13:44the armed group M23
13:46made a new advance
13:48in the east of the country,
13:50while the Burundi,
13:52which deployed soldiers
13:54in support of the Congolese army,
13:56suffered attacks.
13:58The clashes had decreased,
14:00had receded in recent days
14:02before resuming in the territory
14:04of Kalié,
14:06about thirty kilometers
14:08from the strategic airport
14:10of Kavumo, still held
14:12by the Congolese armed forces.
14:16We stay in the continent
14:18and in Niger,
14:20the delegates of the different
14:22socio-professional layers
14:24planned from tomorrow
14:26and until February 19.
14:28Information made public
14:30through the decree on the nomination
14:32of this commission in charge
14:34of directing the work.
14:36A dialogue that is, however,
14:38inclusive and that should allow
14:40to guide the process of transition
14:42of the country. Our correspondent
14:44Jean Dibry, William, went to meet
14:46some actors.
14:48It took a year
14:50and several months of preparation
14:52and commitment taken by the military authorities
14:54the day after the coup d'état of July 26, 2023.
14:56The appointment of national assistants
14:58was confirmed this Saturday,
15:00following the decree, however,
15:02creation of a commission in charge
15:04of conducting the work.
15:06From this February 15,
15:08there will be nearly 700 representatives
15:10of the various socio-professional layers
15:12of Niger, called to define a calendar
15:14of the transition.
15:16It will be the definition of national priorities
15:18on all levels of public life,
15:20whether in the economic domain,
15:22in the political domain,
15:24in the field of diplomacy,
15:26in the environmental domain.
15:28Now the national priorities
15:30and the vision of Niger
15:32from these instants
15:34in all these domains.
15:36The meeting,
15:38scheduled for five days, should allow
15:40the actors to exchange on various themes
15:42such as peace and security,
15:44governance or social cohesion.
15:46An inclusive dialogue
15:48that should ultimately define
15:50the priority axes of the country's governance,
15:52but also set the duration
15:54of the ongoing transition.
15:56At the end of these sessions,
15:58we should normally have a declaration
16:00of the duration of the transition,
16:02of an agenda for the elections
16:04that should sanction
16:06the end of the transition
16:08and how
16:10Niger tomorrow
16:12will be governed
16:14or should position itself.
16:16It should be said that for the debates
16:18that are to be announced,
16:20the young people intend to be heard.
16:22At the headquarters of the National Council
16:24of Youth,
16:26the time was still Tuesday
16:28in preparation for a few days
16:30to take part in the sessions.
16:32The goal is clear,
16:34to make the aspirations of the estimated
16:3670% of the local population heard.
16:38To rebuild a country,
16:40it must be based on the young
16:42because they are the future of tomorrow.
16:44Among them are those who will
16:46lead Nigeria tomorrow.
16:48Among them are those who will
16:50build Nigeria through their concrete actions.
16:52And then we must
16:54hear with an attentive ear
16:56what the young people will propose.
16:58It should be noted that a final report
17:00is expected at the end of the five-day debate
17:02scheduled for these national sessions.
17:04It should be transmitted at the beginning of March
17:06to General Abdelrahman Tiani,
17:08President of the Nigerian Transition.
17:10And still in the continent,
17:12facing climate challenges,
17:14local initiatives are multiplying
17:16to restore the ecosystems of the Sahel.
17:18In Senegal,
17:20the Network for the Emergence
17:22and Development of the Sahelian Ecosystems
17:24focuses on the commitment
17:26of the populations
17:28for a sustainable future,
17:30through a festival of ecovillages
17:32of the Sahel,
17:34led by our correspondents
17:36Jeunesse Mokara and Monsangier.
17:38Since its creation,
17:40the Network for the Emergence
17:42and Development of the Sahel
17:44aims to restore the Sahelian ecosystems
17:46while promoting a sustainable
17:48economic and social development.
17:50The Network for the Emergence
17:52and Development of the Sahel
17:54has undertaken a colossal work
17:56for about ten years,
17:58which consists of producing plants,
18:00watering,
18:02both in Senegal and in Mauritania.
18:04The Network for the Emergence
18:06and Development of the Sahel
18:09For the members of the Network for the Emergence,
18:11the fight against desertification
18:13and climate change
18:15goes through a major amplification
18:17of the populations.
18:19But what is the process?
18:21It is an inclusive,
18:23participatory approach.
18:25Together we work to make the diagnostics,
18:27we develop the projects together
18:29and the execution of the work
18:31is ensured by the community,
18:33which means that in the end,
18:35even for the management
18:37these populations find themselves
18:39because it is still
18:41in their interest.
18:43Youth is also invited to get involved.
18:45This is done first by understanding
18:47the challenges of this project.
18:49We are doing this work
18:51at the community level
18:53and we have successes.
18:55In reality, it does not require
18:57a lot of funding
18:59because it is enough for young people,
19:01associations, women's cooperatives,
19:03local and national decision-makers
19:05to understand the issues
19:07and create synergies
19:09so that very quickly
19:11we can push back the desert
19:13and create abundance.
19:15With concrete actions
19:17and growing mobilization,
19:19the Redes continues to prove
19:21that Sahel solutions can respond
19:23to global challenges.
19:25But to achieve this ecological transition,
19:27the involvement of the populations remains essential.
19:29A challenge that the Network
19:31wants to raise with local communities.
19:34Returning to Morocco with
19:36the Made in Morocco,
19:38a label, a brand at the heart
19:40of the Morocco Franchise Exhibition.
19:42A show that is at its first edition
19:44and that has known since yesterday
19:46in Casablanca the participation
19:48of more than 100 exhibitors
19:50from various sectors.
19:52Objective? Promote the implementation
19:54and expansion of new franchises
19:56in the Kingdom.
19:58Details with Dina Brini.
20:03The model of the franchise
20:05as a lever of economic growth
20:07was at the heart of the Morocco
20:09Franchise Exhibition 2025
20:11which started this Wednesday in Casablanca.
20:13Organized by the Moroccan
20:15Federation of the Franchise,
20:17this show is essentially aimed
20:19at promoting the implementation
20:21and expansion of franchises in Morocco.
20:25It is an opportunity
20:27to discover the Made in Morocco
20:29which today is oriented towards international markets
20:31through the existence of a program
20:33put in place by the Ministry
20:35and the Secretary-General of the Government
20:37aimed at accompanying these brands
20:39in the extension of their presence
20:41on a global scale.
20:43Today we will work to strengthen
20:45the Moroccan brand in order
20:47to allow it to be exported
20:49on an international scale.
20:51The franchise, beyond a simple
20:53commercial strategy,
20:55constitutes a motor of growth
20:57and innovation.
20:59It promotes employment
21:01and contributes to economic development.
21:03We are committed to
21:05particularly supporting
21:07the products made in Morocco
21:09in order to conquer
21:11European and African markets.
21:13I am particularly addressing
21:15small and medium-sized entrepreneurs.
21:17If they decide to take the initiative
21:19to invest, it is essential
21:21to offer them an innovative idea,
21:23a distinguished economic model
21:25or to turn to
21:27network trade.
21:29This edition is marked
21:31by the conference and workshop
21:33organized by experts
21:35around key themes,
21:37including the best strategies
21:39for the development of franchises,
21:41the financing mechanisms
21:43and the opportunities for implementation
21:45on the African market.
21:49Today we are proud to
21:51wear the colours of Morocco
21:53through the Made in Morocco
21:55by local craftsmen.
21:57Our ambition is to fully satisfy our customers
21:59and to spread this model
22:01throughout the country.
22:03With an average annual growth
22:05of 25% in the franchise sector
22:07and an increased interest
22:09of international investors,
22:11Morocco is positioned as
22:13an essential destination
22:15for the development of franchises in Africa.
22:17Still in Morocco,
22:19Bally del Marib wants to
22:21have a respectful mobility
22:23for the environment,
