00:00We are still together on Média TV. Thank you for remaining faithful to us. Here are
00:20the headlines of your newspaper.
00:22Abundant rains have been flooding Morocco for several days. Very good news. In the space
00:27of two weeks, dam reserves have increased by more than 1 billion cubic meters. We will
00:32talk about this in a moment.
00:35For American President Donald Trump, Iran would now be held responsible for each shot
00:41of fire by the rebels and militias supported by the ground.
00:43The European Union has committed today, during a conference of donors in Brussels, to provide
00:51nearly 2.5 billion euros to Syria over two years for its reconstruction after more than
00:58a decade of war.
00:59We start this newspaper in Morocco where the sky continues to open its veils. There is
01:08also a lot of snow and the wind blows hard from place to place. A meteorological alert
01:13of an orange level of vigilance. It concerns several regions. Winds gusting from 75 to
01:1985 km will sweep the provinces of Shishawa, El Sahira, Marrakech, Breshid, El Jadida and
01:25Asfi. A white coat covers the provinces of Ouarzazate, El Houz, Benimelal, Ifran and Midelt
01:32with snowfalls of 5 to 20 cm on heights above 1,900 meters above sea level.
01:39The recent rains in Morocco have contributed to a clear improvement in the filling rate
01:47of dams. According to the Ministry of Equipment and Water, the filling rate has reached 35%
01:54against 26% in the same period the previous year.
01:59The recent rainfall recorded during this month of March gave a boost to the Moroccan dams.
02:06The filling rate of the dams has thus experienced a significant increase on Monday, March 17,
02:13reaching 35.3% against 27.8% on March 1, according to data published by the Ministry of Equipment and Water,
02:22the highest filling rate since March 2022.
02:27A progression of nearly 7 points in just two weeks. This increase is explained by the recent
02:34rains, which have fed several reservoirs of water, although some strategic infrastructures remain
02:40below their optimal capacity. However, this increase should also continue with the melting of the snow.
02:47Several dams are distinguished by a notable increase in their reserves between March 1 and 16, 2025.
02:54With a capacity of 3.52 billion cubic meters, the filling rate of the Al Wahda dam has gone from 38.3% to 49.2%.
03:06Second strongest increase in percentage, the Wedmarchezine dam has seen its reserves go from 464 million cubic meters to 616.9 million cubic meters.
03:19It has thus reached 91.7% of its total capacity.
03:24The Moulay Abdallah dam has recorded a significant increase in its reserves, going from 399.3 million cubic meters to 533.8 million cubic meters.
03:38Its filling rate now rises to 54.8% against 41% at the beginning of this month.
03:47Regarding the Idriss I dam, it has seen its reserves grow from 288.9 million cubic meters to 362.1 million cubic meters.
03:59However, its filling rate remains limited to 32%, well below its total capacity of 1.13 billion cubic meters.
04:10Let us remember that every year, Morocco consumes 1 billion cubic meters of drinking water from the dams.
04:16The rest of the estimated consumption of 500 to 700 million cubic meters is from draughts or desalination.
04:24The annual consumption of drinking water is thus estimated between 1.5 and 1.7 billion cubic meters per year.
04:33On Royal Instruction, the General of the Armed Forces, Mohamed Beli, the Inspector General of the FARC, and the Commander of the South Zone,
04:41will continue their visit to Saudi Arabia until March 21.
04:46The Inspector General of the FARC has already held a meeting with the General of the Armed Forces, Fayyad bin Hamad al-Rawaili,
04:55the Chief of Staff of the General Staff of the Saudi Armed Forces,
04:58during which they discussed various aspects of the military cooperation between Morocco and Saudi Arabia,
05:04a cooperation that the two parties intend to consolidate in order to cover the areas and issues of common interest under the impetus of the leaders of the two countries.
05:16In Addis Ababa, Morocco reiterated the imperative of an efficient and efficient Pan-African institution
05:24to respond to the aspirations of the African citizen in terms of peace, security and development.
05:31The Ambassador of the Kingdom to the United Nations, Mohamed Darouchi,
05:36who intervened during a meeting of the Committee of the Permanent Representatives of the African Union,
05:41called again for a good administrative and financial governance within the Luhya Commission.
05:51The iron arm continues between Algeria and Paris.
05:54Algeria, which has refused today the list of names of about sixty Algerian refugees that France wants to expel as a priority.
06:03The French Minister of the Interior had grouped several names,
06:06whose profiles are considered as the most dangerous by Paris.
06:11No, for the Algerian authorities, this does not happen like that.
06:14Algeria invites Paris to follow the usage channel for such a procedure in response to the Algerian decision.
06:21The French Minister of the Interior announces a resignation for Bruno Retailleau.
06:27Algeria does not respect the 1994 agreement as a consular reference between the two countries.
06:37For the American President, Iran would now be held responsible for each shot.
06:42The Yemeni rebels, supported by Tehran,
06:46this statement of the owner of the White House comes after American strikes
06:53aimed at Sana'a and other regions under the control of the Houthis,
06:56killed dozens this weekend in Yemen.
06:59In response, the rebels claimed yesterday and today
07:02two distinct attacks on the American aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman in the Red Sea.
07:13There will be a telephone interview tomorrow between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.
07:17The Kremlin has confirmed it today.
07:19The two heads of state will speak for the second time officially since the return to the White House of the American president
07:28who seeks to revoke his commitment to a Ukrainian strike.
07:33Many things have already been discussed with the two parties.
07:37Yesterday, he mentioned the sharing between Moscow and Kiev of land and energy production plants.
07:49The American proposal for a strike in Ukraine will be at the heart of the telephone interview
07:53between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.
07:56What should be the conditions of the Russian president?
07:59Answer with Zakaria Abou-Dakhab, professor of international relations at the University of Mohammed V in Rabat.
08:06The first thing for Putin is to finally win this battle, this war,
08:12which has been going on for a few years already.
08:15We remember that it was in February 2022, so he is in his third year.
08:19And more, that's the first point.
08:21Secondly, it's a question of credibility for Putin, who has engaged the country.
08:25At the time, there was Mr. Biden, who coalesced with the Europeans to counter the Russian offensive.
08:32And at the same time, with the sanctions, Russia has been fined.
08:38It was suspended from the Council of Europe.
08:40Long before, with the annexation of Crimea in 2014, it was suspended at the time of the G8, which became the G7, etc.
08:47If Putin wants to go in this direction, he necessarily has conditions.
08:53He has conditions, he has Arada's wishes.
08:55Perhaps to legitimize the annexation of the east of Ukraine, which is not obvious.
09:00For, once again, Vladimir Zelensky, who is at risk of losing his credibility, his legitimacy.
09:08At that moment, he will finally say that all these wars, all these years of war, did not bring much.
09:16There is the strategy of the actors.
09:18There is the said, there is the not said.
09:20Putin adheres, roughly speaking, to Trump's proposal.
09:24Given the connection between the two heads of state, and perhaps the friendship that brings them together,
09:29and perhaps even the conversations they had without it being official.
09:34However, it is certain that for Mr. Zelensky, in this trio, compared to the United States, compared to Russia,
09:42he seems to be the weakest link.
09:44Whereas today, I believe Putin is in a position of strength.
09:48In the meantime, a European coalition of support for Ukraine, you know, has been constituted.
09:53What are its main objectives?
09:55What role could it play in the conclusion of an agreement to cease fire between Kiev and Moscow?
10:01Always answer with Zakaria Abou-Dahab.
10:04In terms of the words of Mr. Trump, if there is an agreement, it is absolutely necessary that the Europeans are part of it.
10:11And so we know very well that we could not reach a sustainable agreement without the involvement of Europe in general.
10:18When we say Europe, we include, of course, the United Kingdom, which has not been a member of the European Union for a few years.
10:23Secondly, there is NATO, of course, which must also, in one way or another,
10:27supervise the negotiations, at least, in being a participant.
10:31And we know very well about Putin's allergy to this organization,
10:35which was created in 1949 and which was fundamentally anti-Soviet for several decades.
10:41Europe is waking up.
10:43There is the Russian threat.
10:46Moreover, we had followed the words of Mr. Macron a few days ago, I think last Friday or last Thursday.
10:52And Mr. Putin's answer, considering that there is a kind of neo-Napoleonism
10:57which manifests itself in the words of Mr. Macron.
11:02So, truly, Europe has officially decided to inject no less than 800 billion euros for rearmament
11:08to constitute a security complex.
11:11And so, the wave of shock, the war between Russia and Ukraine and Mr. Donald Trump's action,
11:16ultimately, we end up nailing a Europe that is still looking for itself
11:20and is defining itself in relation to geostrategic issues that are played on its borders.
11:25When we talk about Europe, we are mainly talking about the Baltic States.
11:29Estonia, Lithuania and Lithuania.
11:31And we are talking about Poland, which, I think, is the first one,
11:35which is probably in Mr. Putin's geopolitical, geostrategic collimator.
11:39So, there is a kind of mix-up in relation to what is happening in the old continent.
11:45I will announce it to you in the titles.
11:47The European Union has committed today in Brussels, during a conference,
11:51to provide donors with nearly 2.5 billion euros to Syria.
11:56This aid will be provided over two years for the reconstruction of the country
11:59after more than a decade of war.
12:05Europe is mobilizing in favor of Syria.
12:08In addition to nearly 2.5 billion euros that the European Union promised to provide
12:13in international aid to Syria in 2025 and 2026,
12:18several 27 countries have said they are ready to provide additional financial aid
12:23for the country devastated by more than a decade of war.
12:27The United Kingdom has committed to mobilizing up to 190 million euros this year
12:32to rebuild the country and provide vital aid to Syrian refugees in neighboring countries.
12:38Germany has announced that it would provide additional aid
12:42for UN interventions in the country.
12:46Germany will provide an additional 300 million euros to the UN
12:51and the organizations selected for this gigantic task for the Syrian people and the region.
12:57This is humanitarian aid, support for civil society,
13:00psychosocial tasks and, above all, support for the educational system.
13:06This ninth edition of the Donors' Conference is different from the others.
13:11For the first time, representatives of the authorities in power in Damascus have participated.
13:17The Syrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Assad al-Shebani,
13:21spoke in Brussels on behalf of his country.
13:30The new Syrian government affirms its commitment to working with all international partners
13:35and humanitarian organizations to ensure that aid reaches those in need.
13:39Today, we call on all donor countries to actively contribute to the reconstruction efforts,
13:44to encourage investments in Syria and to support sustainable development projects,
13:48projects that will improve the living conditions of millions of Syrians.
13:57The Syrian Minister reiterated his appeals to the international community
14:02to lift the sanctions against the country devastated by the conflict.
14:06The Europeans have thus decided to reconsider the gradual lifting of the sanctions imposed on Syria.
14:13But some of them, like France, have claimed that they would oppose it
14:17if the recent executions of the pro-Assad Syrians remained unpunished.
14:21On the other hand, the United Nations estimated that it would take at least half a century for Syria
14:27to regain the economic situation it knew before the civil war that broke out in 2011.
14:33Last year, the Syrian Donors Conference had already mobilized some 7.5 billion euros.
14:44The Lebanese President has ordered his army to respond to the shelling from the Syrian border.
14:50The authorities cost lives.
14:53Fights broke out last night in the eastern part of Lebanon.
14:58Syrian authorities have accused the Hezbollah of having removed and executed three Syrian soldiers
15:05after bringing them to Lebanon, which the Lebanese pro-Iranian movement has formally denied.
15:16Israel sent negotiators to Egypt yesterday to discuss with Egyptian mediators
15:22the issue of hostages held in the Gaza Strip.
15:26Last week, indirect discussions took place in Doha on the basis of a proposal from the US
15:32which participated in the negotiations, but profound divergences would put it at risk.
15:38The ceasefire, questioned on CNN, Steve Whitkoff indicated that his proposal included
15:44the return of five hostages alive in exchange for the release of a large number of Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.
15:57In Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced yesterday his intention
16:02to dismiss the head of the Interior Security Service, Ronen Bar,
16:06claiming he could no longer trust him.
16:09The relationship between the two men is already tense.
16:12It was intensified after the publication of an internal investigation report on October 7
16:18in which the agency recognizes flaws in the information collection
16:23which could have alerted authorities to the extent of the attack.
16:31The new Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney was received today in London by King Charles III
16:37after a visit to Paris where he called to strengthen ties with his reliable allies in Europe.
16:44Canadian Prime Ministers traditionally reserve their first visits abroad to American neighbors,
16:50but the country of 41 million inhabitants is going through an unprecedented crisis
16:54since Donald Trump launched a trade war against it,
16:58and continues to say that he wants to make it the 58th American state.
17:04With you, Mr. President, I want to ensure that France and the whole of Europe
17:08works enthusiastically with Canada, the most European of non-European nations.
17:33We will respond to the invitation of the Angolan media to declare the spokeswoman of President Felix Issiquedi, Tina Salamand.
17:56In Côte d'Ivoire, a few months before the presidential election next October,
17:59the Independent Electoral Commission proceeded, it is said,
18:02to the official submission of the provisional electoral list to political parties and civil society organizations.
18:09The CIA is committed to publishing the final list next June.
18:13Mel Berchel and Wilfrid Goué.
18:17It is a crucial step before the presidential scrutiny.
18:20The Independent Electoral Commission has officially submitted the provisional electoral list
18:25to political parties and civil society organizations.
18:28A list of rigorous verification processes, according to the institution.
18:33At the end of all these treatment operations,
18:36which led to both the final list of 2023 and the new data collected in 2024,
18:43the provisional electoral list available today has a total of 8,761,348 voters,
18:55men 4,528,554, women 4,232,794.
19:09For the CIA, this submission marks a breakthrough towards credible elections.
19:13But for the opposition and some civil society organizations,
19:17the shadow areas persist.
19:19They claim a new revision of the electoral list,
19:22estimating that errors could compromise the transparency of the scrutiny.
19:26Normally, with the experience that the CIA has,
19:29it should organize an RLE while keeping in mind
19:33that it still has to organize the next year's one.
19:38And the presidential election being so important,
19:41it would be logical that the 2025 RLE takes place before this presidential election.
19:48So the CIA must recognize that it is poorly organized.
19:51In this demonstration, we see that there are 4 million Ivorians
19:54who want to register, which is 42% of the total,
19:59who are not registered on the electoral list.
20:01We know that we can win an election with a vote.
20:04So take into account these people who really want the enrollment,
20:08who want to register on the electoral list.
20:10But we see that the CIA does not want to take them into account.
20:14They gave us a calendar.
20:16It was the only one that did not go.
20:18We feel that there is a desire not to organize democratic elections in the country.
20:23The provisional electoral list is scheduled for March 17-21
20:27following the national election, thus opening the period of contention,
20:32a decisive step that will determine the definitive version of the list
20:36before the presidential scrutiny.
20:39We are now in Senegal to visit the National School of Arts and Cultural Affairs of Dakar,
20:47a professional education institution that offers training,
20:51in particular in the fields of scenic arts, plastic arts,
20:56but also cultural animation.
20:59This is a report from our correspondents on Place Bachir Yazbojan and Eva Sagna.
21:06This course is currently held at the National School of Arts and Cultural Affairs of Dakar.
21:11It is a course on musical theory,
21:14because it is a course without which we cannot really understand other subjects.
21:18So it is really the basis of music.
21:21Earlier, we were doing an exercise on scales.
21:25Through a question, we represented a scale, the major F sharp scale.
21:31It is a scale made up of six sharp alterations.
21:37And musical theory is the set of laws,
21:41the set of signs that govern writing,
21:44that govern the understanding of music.
21:47The institution was formerly called the School of Dakar
21:51following the independence,
21:53then the National School of Fine Arts,
21:56or the National School of Arts.
21:59It is an institution that offers training in the artistic and cultural field.
22:05It is a direct competition and a professional competition.
22:08So this is the upper cycle.
22:10The teachers of artistic and plastic education,
22:12the teachers of artistic and musical education,
22:14the cultural affairs counsellors.
22:16Now, at the level of the middle cycle,
22:19we have the plasticians of expression.
22:21So it is the plastic artists that you often see,
22:25who do a BFM plus four years.
22:28Here they are, they work for their account.
22:32Three departments make up the school.
22:35Each offers a very specific training.
22:38We have what is called an initial training.
22:41In this initial training,
22:44we have our students who do, in certain areas,
22:47a four-year training.
22:50And we have what is called the first cycle,
22:54when it comes to the department of training,
22:56of trainers and cultural development,
22:58that is to say the higher level,
23:00where we recruit from the baccalaureate.
23:02We have a music department there,
23:06where we train music teachers.
23:08Another department where we train plastic art teachers.
23:11And another department where we train cultural animators.
23:14The admission process is done by way of competition.
23:17Moreover, the quota for the academic year 2024-2025
23:21has been revised.
23:23We started our academic year
23:29and the enrollment has stabilized.
23:32In the department of training,
23:35we have 143 students this year.
23:38In the department of scenic arts,
23:40we have 41 students.
23:42And in the department of visual arts,
23:44we have 62 students,
23:46which makes a total of 246 students.
23:51Open to other nationalities,
23:53the practice of learning is essential.
23:57The National School of Arts and Cultural Affairs of Dakar
24:01underwent a new reform in January 2022
24:04to conform to the sectoral policy of the Senegalese Ministry of Culture,
24:09hence the implementation of a new direction
24:12of content and research training.
24:18The end of this news.
24:19Thank you for following it.
24:20In a few moments, new points on the news.
