00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Mediantv for your press release.
00:13The Ministry of Housing is launching a study to better structure the Moroccan metropolitan systems
00:18in order to strengthen economic development while reducing territorial inequalities.
00:23As explained by the 360, the first phase of the study will be devoted to a territorial strategic diagnosis
00:29and to a comparative analysis of successful metropolisation models at the international level,
00:34while the second will focus on the definition of a strategic vision
00:39and the elaboration of a prospective development scheme of the Moroccan metropolitan systems.
00:46The study comes to a point, given the rapid urbanisation that the Kingdom is experiencing.
00:51The rate of urbanisation increased from 9.2% between 2004 and 2024
00:57to reach 62.8% last year, which should exceed 73% by 2050.
01:03But beware, if the current metropolisation constitutes a development lever,
01:08it also risks accentuating disparities between territories.
01:12Without an appropriate development strategy, non-metropolitan regions could become marginalised,
01:18which will hinder their economic growth and reduce their attractiveness, concludes the 360 in these lines.
01:26It's a possible blow to the United States,
01:29since Elon Musk could leave the Trump administration soon, says Politico.
01:33According to the specialized information website,
01:35which relies on the statements of three sources close to Donald Trump,
01:39the American president informed his entourage that Tesla's boss
01:43plans to devote himself to his own activities and to withdraw in the coming weeks.
01:48The possible departure of the billionaire,
01:50charged with drastically cutting public spending via the Department of Governmental Efficiency,
01:56intervenes while some members of the administration and many external allies
02:01are exasperated by his unpredictability and consider the billionaire more and more as a political handicap,
02:07emphasizes the American media.
02:09On Tuesday, Trump faced a first electoral reversal
02:12with the election of a Democrat judge in Wisconsin,
02:15a scrutiny marked by the strong involvement of Elon Musk and other American media,
02:21but also because of Tesla's latest results,
02:24which recorded a 13% drop in sales in the first quarter of 2025,
02:29reaching its lowest level since 2022.
02:34European car manufacturers will escape sanctions until 2027
02:39if they do not meet the objectives of reducing carbon dioxide emissions set by Brussels,
02:44writes the International Courier.
02:46In a three-year delay, the European Commission confirmed on Tuesday
02:50the softening of standards imposed on the European automobile industry in terms of CO2 emissions.
02:56Manufacturers are misled by the rise in Chinese car imports,
03:00by the weakness of electric car sales and by the next trade war with the United States,
03:05will temporarily escape fines in the event of disrespect.
03:09The objectives of reducing the emissions of their vehicles are explained in the evening,
03:13taken up by the French magazine Industrie.
03:16Vendee Globe, against the project, had calculated that the sector could face fines of up to 15 billion euros.
03:22End of quote.
03:23But the delay granted to the industry does not please everyone.
03:26Ecologists did not take long to condemn this decision, observes the European media.
03:30According to the Environment Transport Association, it is a mistake to change the rules in the middle of the game,
03:35details the International Courier.
03:39In a reconductible strike for more than three weeks,
03:41the burglars in Birmingham protest against the suppression of a crucial stage for the operation of their services,
03:47explains the Birmingham Mail.
03:49The smell attacks the bottom of the throat,
03:51says the newspaper of the second city of the United Kingdom.
03:53The source of this repugnant emanation, a pile of garbage bags several meters wide,
03:58is located a few steps from housing and stores.
04:01The Balsall Heath district, where the reporter went, is not an isolated case.
04:05Everywhere in Birmingham, the garbage overflows.
04:08A total of 17,000 tons of waste has been littering the streets since the beginning of the strike of the burglars on March 11.
04:14The social movement has now been going on for four weeks,
04:17after first sporadic actions launched as early as January,
04:20due to the suppression of a scale of 8,000 pounds, the salary of 150 workers.
04:26After a case of wage discrimination, which cost the city nearly 760 million pounds,
04:32the City Council now says it fears similar complaints,
04:36in case of maintenance of the post of manager of the collection and recycling,
04:40without equivalent in other municipal services, specifies the Birmingham Mail.
04:46We end this press conference with the history of the day
04:49and the crazy challenge of a Moroccan cyclist,
04:51wanting to cover 24,000 km before the World Cup in 2026.

04:59Ushuaia, Salahdin Ben Arim, 24 years old,
05:01embarked on an exceptional adventure,
05:04a crossing of the American continent by bike,
05:07connecting the southern tip of the world to Alaska.
05:10Passionate about cycling and football,
05:12this former student in financial management,
05:14had already rallied Qatar by bike in 2022,
05:17to attend the World Cup, recalls the online media.
05:20This time, his itinerary will lead him to travel 14 countries,
05:23with a stop in Mexico for the World Cup 2026,
05:26before going back to the vast North American expanses.
05:29Faced with the elements, he will have to brave the violent winds of Patagonia,
05:33the steep slopes of the Andes and the scorching deserts of Chile.
05:36Further north, the tropical forests of Central America
