00:00New information on Mediain TV, welcome to the big news of the midday.
00:20The offer of Morocco in the hydrogen sector to its piloting committee
00:26was met yesterday under the presidency of the head of government.
00:30The cost is estimated at 319 billion dirhams.
00:37In the presence of the head of Moroccan diplomacy,
00:40the Gulf Cooperation Council reiterated its constant positions in favor of the Moroccan Sahara.
00:47It was Thursday at a meeting held in Mecca.
00:52Clashes, I say, between members of the Syrian security forces
00:57and loyal fighters launched by President Bashar al-Assad.
01:01These violences have killed more than 70 people.
01:10In Rabat, I say, the head of government, Aziz Arnouch,
01:14presided over a meeting of the piloting committee in charge of the offer of Morocco in hydrogen.
01:21During this meeting, five regional and foreign investors
01:26were selected for the realization of these projects in the southern regions of Morocco.
01:33The total cost of these projects is 319 billion dirhams.
01:40I invite you to listen to Aziz Arnouch, the head of the Moroccan government.
01:48The government has set up a positive dynamic
01:51based on the thoroughness and rigor in the implementation of the offer of Morocco
01:55in terms of green hydrogen, in line with the high royal directives
01:59contained in the speech of the throne on July 29, 2023,
02:03in which the sovereign had engaged the government
02:06to resume the rapid and qualitative implementation of the offer of Morocco
02:10in the field of green hydrogen, in order to enhance the assets that our country has
02:15and to respond as best as possible to the projects carried out by global investors,
02:19including this promising sector.
02:23During this meeting, five national and global investors
02:27were selected for the realization of six projects,
02:30including the three southern regions of the kingdom, for a cost of 319 billion dirhams.
02:36These are leading companies in the field of green hydrogen,
02:39in their respective countries, including national actors,
02:42an American company, a Spanish company, a German company,
02:46as well as companies from Arab countries.
02:51On Thursday, the Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council,
02:56Jassim El Boudaoui, reiterated the decisions and constant positions
03:03of the Council in favor of the Moroccanity of the Sahara,
03:07the stability of the kingdom and its territorial integrity.
03:11In front of Morocco, represented by its head of diplomacy,
03:15and in front of the Member States, the Secretary-General of the CCG
03:20congratulated himself on the UN resolution adopted on October 31, 2024
03:26concerning the Moroccan Sahara.
03:29He also saluted the pioneering initiatives launched by His Majesty King Mohammed VI
03:35in favor of Africa.
03:37I invite you to listen to Nasser Bourita's statement.
03:41He reaffirms the firm will of Morocco to move forward
03:45in the fruitful strategic partnership with the states of the CCG.
03:51This joint meeting between Morocco and the Gulf Cooperation Council.
03:57This is the 7th meeting of the Joint Working Group between Morocco
04:01and the Member States of the Gulf Cooperation Council.
04:04This initiative finds its origin in the close ties
04:07between His Majesty King Mohammed VI and his brothers,
04:11the kings, princes and presidents of the states of the Gulf Cooperation Council.
04:16In everything related to the development of this relationship.
04:20The Maroc-Gulf Summit of 2016 was an essential reference
04:25for the development of this relationship.
04:27The wish expressed by His Majesty the King
04:30that this relationship, based on sincere fraternity,
04:33also rests on shared strategic interests.
04:37Morocco, thanks to the reforms carried out by His Majesty the King,
04:42is an important economic face.
04:44Thanks to the reforms carried out by His Majesty,
04:46Morocco has become a privileged destination for investment.
04:50Thus, the relations between Morocco and the CCG must integrate these reforms,
04:54these evolutions and these projects, of which Morocco is a witness.
05:02Our exchanges have given special attention to the economic aspect.
05:06The Maroc-Gulf Summit planned for this year
05:09will constitute an essential platform to promote
05:12the collaboration between the Moroccan private sector and the Gulf.
05:21Royal initiatives for Africa,
05:23such as the gas pipeline from Nigeria-Morocco to Europe
05:26or the access of the Sahel countries to the Atlantic Ocean,
05:29represent, in their strategic dimension,
05:31a precious opportunity to strengthen cooperation
05:34between Morocco and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries.
05:43Nasser Bourita, Head of Moroccan Diplomacy,
05:46also had an interview on Thursday with the Syrian Minister of Foreign Affairs,
05:52Assad Hassan al-Shibani.
05:54During this interview,
05:56Nasser Bourita affirmed Morocco's support
05:59for the unity and national sovereignty of Syria,
06:03recalling that His Majesty the King Mohammed VI
06:06assured the Syrian President,
06:08in the interim,
06:10of his support for the realization of the ambitions of the Syrians.
06:18Saudi Arabia condemns the violence
06:21of groups qualified as outlawed in Syria
06:24after unprecedented clashes
06:27between security forces
06:30and loyal fighters to President Bashar al-Assad.
06:34Turkey warns against any provocation
06:38threatening peace in Syria and in the region.
06:41On Thursday, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights
06:45reported more than 70 deaths
06:48in violent clashes in northwestern Syria.
06:54These clashes in the city of Jablé
06:57and nearby villages on the Mediterranean coast
07:00are the most violent attacks.
07:03This is against the new authorities.
07:10For the American broadcaster,
07:12for the Middle East,
07:14Steve Whitkoff,
07:16the Egyptian plan to rebuild Gaza
07:19is a first step of good faith.
07:22According to the broadcaster,
07:24it presents many convincing characteristics
07:27that need to be discussed more.
07:29Steve Whitkoff congratulated himself
07:32on the fact that Donald Trump
07:34had managed to encourage other people
07:37in the Middle East to present proposals.
07:44The head of Chinese diplomacy
07:46emphasized this Friday
07:48that mutual respect
07:50constitutes the founding principle
07:53of Sino-American relations.
07:55He warns against the policies
07:57likely to harm the trust
07:59between the two world powers.
08:02Relations between China and the United States
08:05are in a period of tension
08:07due to various trade issues,
08:09including the last episode
08:11when China announced
08:13that it would impose additional customs rights
08:16on certain American products
08:18from March 10th to March 10th
08:20in response to a similar measure
08:22taken by Washington.
08:25Russian forces massively bombed
08:27the energy infrastructure of Ukraine
08:29last night.
08:31Bombings took place a few days
08:33before a diplomatic meeting
08:35in Saudi Arabia
08:37between Americans and Ukrainians.
08:39These bombings also took place
08:41the day after a summit
08:43of the 27 European leaders
08:45which faced the disengagement
08:47of Washington in the conflict
08:49between the United States
08:51and Russia.
08:53On Thursday in Brussels,
08:55the leaders of Washington
08:57expressed their desire
08:59to strengthen the capacities
09:01to defend the continent.
09:07In Côte d'Ivoire,
09:09the Minister of Construction
09:11held a press conference
09:13to talk about reforms
09:15since 2019
09:17in the sectors of land
09:19and housing.
09:21In response to the issue of land
09:23which is currently making a lot of noise
09:25in the country,
09:27the Minister announced a reform.
09:29Max Soubi and Ange-Wilfred Méhenguer
09:31reported on this.
09:33It is similar to what we could call
09:35the crisis of land.
09:37For several weeks,
09:39Côte d'Ivoire has been under the
09:41story of land conflicts,
09:43of the different,
09:45fueled by the inadequacy
09:47between the customs rights
09:49and the international rights.
09:51The Ivorian Minister in charge
09:53of construction pointed out
09:55the village certificate.
09:57In the current system,
09:59the village heads
10:01issue this certificate
10:03to recognize that an individual
10:05has customary rights
10:07on a land.
10:09After that, the owner
10:11or the buyer to whom
10:13they sell the land
10:15must have his property
10:17and the signature
10:19is issued exclusively
10:21by the village heads.
10:23A village head can be of good faith,
10:25but that does not mean
10:27that the village certificates
10:29coming from his village
10:31are all free of problems.
10:33So the problem is the fragility
10:35or the weaknesses
10:37of the village certificate.
10:39In replacement of the village certificate,
10:41a reform was adopted
10:43to establish a certificate
10:45based on a system
10:47of digitization of centralized
10:49and computerized loading
10:51to avoid duplicates.
10:53Imagine that on a plot
10:55there is only one certificate.
10:57That the gift
10:59that is carried on the certificate
11:01is the name that appears
11:03in the guide that is in the village.
11:05And that the owner
11:07is able to produce
11:09an identity card
11:11to show that it is him.
11:13Even if you put Satan
11:15in the Ministry of Construction,
11:17he will not be able to attribute
11:19this to someone else.
11:21So the problems come
11:23precisely from the multiple
11:25attributions that are made.
11:27The attestation of the customary
11:29use code as the epilogue
11:31of the land crisis can be
11:33a place of hope for many users.
11:35Anouakchott, the Moroccan market
11:37has become an essential destination
11:39during Ramadan
11:41for the inhabitants
11:43of the Mauritanian capital.
11:45It has become one of the best
11:47places to do its shopping.
11:49Ahmed Behdi reports
11:51and the story of Zinem Seri.
11:53It is one of the largest
11:55markets in the Mauritanian capital.
11:57The Moroccan market
11:59attracts a large crowd
12:01of all Arab communities
12:03who come to do their shopping.
12:05There is a strong influence
12:07on the Moroccan market during Ramadan.
12:09The market is full of spices
12:11and various Moroccan products.
12:13Doing his shopping on this market
12:15has become almost a tradition.
12:17Every Ramadan,
12:19the alleys are filled with families
12:21looking for essential products
12:23to prepare the food.
12:25A real crossroads of flavors,
12:27the market offers a diversity
12:29of Moroccan products,
12:31essential for the break of fast.
12:33The market is rich
12:35in products and flavors.
12:37I often come here to do my shopping
12:39for Ramadan.
12:41I came to the Moroccan market.
12:43There are really a lot of choices.
12:45Personally, I think it is one of the best
12:47in the capital.
12:49With its diversity of products
12:51and its lively atmosphere,
12:53the Moroccan market in Nouakchott
12:55has become an essential place
12:57not only to do his shopping
12:59but also to fully experience
13:01the Ramadan traditions.
13:04And during Ramadan,
13:06fasting prevents some patients
13:08from taking their medication
13:10at the usual times.
13:12Doctors warn about self-medication
13:14during this period
13:16and especially for chronic diseases.
13:18Explanation with this report
13:20by Ayoub Deraza,
13:22commented by Dina Marini.
13:28If fasting during Ramadan
13:30presents benefits for health,
13:32especially in favoring
13:34the detoxification of the body
13:36and improving the sensitivity
13:38to insulin,
13:40it can, on the other hand,
13:42cause risks for certain categories
13:44of people,
13:46especially those suffering
13:48from chronic diseases.
13:50In this sense,
13:52pharmacists provide important
13:54advice to patients
13:56regarding their treatment
13:58according to the prescription
14:01We suggest to patients
14:03to consult their doctor,
14:05especially diabetic patients
14:07who must take precautions
14:09before deciding to fast.
14:11Some patients decide to change
14:13the time of taking their medication
14:15without taking the advice
14:17of their doctor.
14:19This practice is risky
14:21as it can endanger
14:23the patient's health.
14:27Taking medication
14:29once a day
14:31does not require
14:33regular adjustments.
14:35For those who need
14:37two daily injections,
14:39it is recommended
14:41to divide the injections
14:43between Suhoor and Iftar.
14:45However, some treatments,
14:47especially those requiring
14:49several injections a day,
14:51could lose their effectiveness
14:53due to prolonged fasting.
14:55In these cases,
14:57diabetic patients
14:59can take medication
15:01once a day.
15:03Fasting can be risky
15:05for people suffering
15:07from diabetes.
15:09Changing your daily rhythm
15:11during this month
15:13while avoiding eating
15:15and drinking for long hours
15:17before taking a meal
15:19outside of your usual hours
15:21can disrupt the metabolism
15:23and unbalance the glycemia
15:26Changing the time
15:28of taking medication
15:30without medical advice
15:32can often negatively affect
15:34the effectiveness of the medication
15:36due to the effect of taking
15:38food on the absorption
15:40of the medication
15:42in the bloodstream.
15:44In this sense,
15:46patients are called
15:48to consult their doctor
15:50before any change
15:52to avoid any risk.
15:54A Moroccan researcher
15:56has revealed a significant increase
15:58in the incidence of
16:00gastric bacteremia
16:02in children.
16:04The result of this study
16:06is worrying
16:08as it can sometimes lead
16:10to more serious pathologies.
16:12More details in this report
16:14by Ayub Berraza and Younes Meissouri
16:16with Noa Bazir for the story.
16:19Helicobacter pylori
16:21is a pathogenic bacteria
16:23present only in the human body.
16:25Although it is in fact
16:27the most common bacterial infection
16:29in the world,
16:31contamination occurs in most cases
16:33during childhood.
16:35Often asymptomatic,
16:37the infection persists over time
16:39in the absence of medical care.
16:41I am not an expert
16:43in stomach infections
16:45but I strongly recommend
16:47to parents whose children
16:49suffer from stomach aches
16:51to take their children
16:53to a doctor.
16:55It is better
16:57to see a doctor
16:59than to take
17:01self-medication.
17:03It is better
17:05to see a doctor
17:07than to see a doctor.
17:09It is better
17:11to consult a family doctor
17:13who knows everyone's files
17:15and can guide the patient
17:17to an effective treatment.
17:1968% of registered cases
17:21come from disadvantaged
17:23socio-economic backgrounds,
17:25which reinforces the hypothesis
17:27that life conditions
17:29influence the spread of the infection.
17:33Parents must remain vigilant
17:35as soon as a child
17:37has stomach aches
17:39without any explanation
17:41or a loss of weight
17:43without visible reason
17:45or a loss of appetite.
17:47It is better
17:49to see a doctor
17:51than to consult
17:53a family doctor
17:55who knows everyone's files
17:57and can guide the patient
17:59to an effective treatment.
18:09From Saturday to Monday,
18:11several provinces
18:13will be affected

19:31The guest of the Grand Journal
19:33is Rali Sqalli,
19:35General Director of Investment
19:37and Business Climate.
19:39He is live from Rabat.
19:41Hello and thank you for taking the time
19:43to answer our questions.
19:49Hello, thank you for the invitation.
19:51So the head of the government,
19:53we talked about it, Aziz Ahnouch,
19:55presided on Thursday in Rabat
19:57a meeting of the committee
19:59of piloting in charge of the offer
20:01Morocco in the sector
20:03of green hydrogen.
20:05Five investors have been
20:07chosen for the project
20:09in the three regions
20:11of the south of the kingdom.
20:13The cost is estimated at
20:15319 billion dirhams.
20:17Regarding the follow-up
20:19of the implementation of the offer
20:21Morocco, where are we
20:23a year after the publication
20:25of this offer Morocco?
20:31First of all, I would like
20:33to give some elements of context
20:35in the speech of July 29,
20:372023, His Majesty
20:39the King, may God assist him,
20:41to engage the government to
20:43undertake the rapid and
20:45qualitative implementation of the offer Morocco
20:47in order to enhance the assets
20:49that our country has
20:51in the matter and to respond as best
20:53as possible to the projects carried out by global investors
20:55in this promising sector.
20:57Following this speech,
20:59the head of the government published
21:01a circular on March 11, 2024
21:03on the implementation of this offer Morocco
21:05and allow the development of the
21:07emerging sector of green hydrogen
21:09in Morocco.
21:11What is the offer Morocco?
21:13It is an incentive, competitive
21:15and pragmatic offer.
21:17It meets the expectations of investors.
21:19The ambition is to make
21:21Morocco a central player
21:23in the global energy transition.
21:25This green hydrogen
21:27will be a real tipping point
21:29for the Moroccan economy because it will
21:31diversify its revenues,
21:33create jobs and added value
21:35and achieve energy sovereignty.
21:37Indeed,
21:39as you said, we are today
21:41one year, almost day by day,
21:43after the publication of this offer
21:45Morocco in the circular by
21:47the head of the government.
21:49To give you a
21:51synthetic answer, today this offer
21:53is already a success.
21:55It is a success because there are more
21:57than 40 projects that have been submitted
21:59as part of this offer.
22:01These projects are carried out by different investors
22:03from 17 different nationalities
22:05including, of course,
22:07Moroccan investors.
22:09But above all,
22:11there are projects that are
22:13being studied and implemented.
22:15I am talking about the two agreements
22:17that were signed under the presidency
22:19of His Majesty the King, may God assist him,
22:21and French President Emmanuel Macron
22:23last October here in Rabat.
22:25The first agreement concerns
22:27the Moroccan state
22:29with the consortium constituted
22:31by Total Energy, CIP
22:33and AP Moller Capital,
22:35while the second agreement concerns
22:37the OCP group and Enchi.
22:39Today, these two agreements
22:41are being implemented on the ground
22:43thanks to the joint efforts
22:45of all stakeholders,
22:47whether from the public or private sectors.
22:49The committee
22:51held yesterday, in particular,
22:53made decisions.
22:55Can you tell us about them?
22:57Do you have any elements to share with us?
23:03Indeed.
23:05According to the Royal Vision,
23:07which makes Morocco one of the rare countries
23:09in the restricted club of the leading countries
23:11of green hydrogen,
23:13yesterday, the head of the government
23:15presided over the fourth meeting
23:17of the Green Hydrogen Pilot Committee.
23:19During this fourth meeting,
23:21the pilot committee selected
23:23five investors.
23:25They are new investors.
23:27They are international, but also national.
23:29They have six projects
23:31that have just been added to the two projects
23:33we discussed earlier.
23:35The total amount of these six projects,
23:37as you said,
23:39reached 319 billion dirhams.
23:43But the key step that this pilot committee
23:45held yesterday
23:47is a demonstration
23:49of the good dynamics in the implementation
23:51of Morocco's offer,
23:53according to the Royal Vision.
23:55A few words about these five investors.
23:57First of all, they are all leaders
23:59in their sectors and in their countries.
24:01Secondly,
24:03they are investors of different nationalities.
24:05We have American investors,
24:07we have European investors,
24:09we also have Arab, Chinese
24:11and, of course, Moroccan investors.
24:13This illustrates
24:15the attractiveness
24:17of the climate, the business environment
24:19and the Moroccan offer.
24:21I would like to insist
24:23on the fact that the selection
24:25of the five investors...
24:27Please, go ahead.
24:29I would like to finish
24:31on an important point.
24:35This is the fact
24:37that the selection of the five investors
24:39is based on a scientific approach
24:41that is transparent,
24:43in line with the guidelines
24:45of the head of government
24:47and based on objective
24:49and pragmatic criteria.
24:51This approach aims
24:53to choose the best partners
24:55in the long term for the Moroccan state.
24:57Secondly, to maximize the positive
24:59outcomes of these green hydrogen projects
25:01for the Kingdom.
25:03Thirdly, to create a kind of balance
25:05in the regional distribution
25:07of these projects
25:09on the national territory.
25:11Fourthly, to diversify the nationality
25:13of the selected investors.
25:15And finally, to diversify
25:17the derivatives that will be produced
25:19from green hydrogen.
25:21One last point, if you allow me.
25:23Each selected investor
25:25will be allocated a public fund
25:27of 30,000 hectares at most
25:29and the state will ensure
25:31the good valuation of this fund
25:33in line with the commitments
25:35of each investor.
25:37Réli, what will be
25:39the next step?
25:45Yesterday's step was
25:47the selection of investors.
25:49Today, we are already
25:51negotiating
25:53between the state and its selected investors
25:55in order to prepare
25:57the preliminary contracts
25:59for the allocation of funds.
26:01What I would like to emphasize
26:03is that the selection process
26:05today is still open.
26:07The Moroccan state welcomes
26:09all investors who would like
26:11to deposit a new offer
26:13or to enrich the offers
26:15that they would have already deposited
26:17with Mazen.
26:19There are still many opportunities to seize.
26:21And I would like to finish by saying
26:23that in accordance with the Royal High Instructions,
26:25the government guarantees
26:27to support all the projects,
26:29all the selected investors
26:31and to implement, to operationalize
26:33all the measures contained
26:35in this Moroccan offer
26:37in order to make the Kingdom
26:39one of the leading countries in hydrogen.

26:43of Investment
26:45and Climate Affairs,
