00:00Thank you for joining us for this round of news, here is the title.
00:23Fight against terrorism in the context of a joint and simultaneous security operation,
00:29the Moroccan and Spanish security services have proceeded to dismantle a terrorist cell affiliated with the DAESH organization in the Sahel.
00:37Details in a few moments.
00:42It is a decisive Friday for the COP29 in Baku,
00:45the negotiators of nearly 200 countries frustrated by two weeks of sterile treatment
00:51are awaiting today the ultimate proposal of financial compromise between rich and developing countries.
01:00The Mohamed VI Foundation of African Ulemas celebrates today the 60th anniversary of the building of the Grand Mosque of Dakar.
01:10An official ceremony has been organized to commemorate the relations between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Republic of Senegal.
01:16We meet again right now for the unveiling.
01:19Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, on high instruction of His Majesty the King Mohammed VI,
01:28His Royal Highness Prince Murayel Hassan received yesterday in Casablanca the President of the People's Republic of China, Xi Jinping,
01:38the head of the Chinese state, making a short visit to the kingdom.
01:42Upon his arrival at Casablanca's Mohamed V International Airport, the Chinese President was welcomed by His Royal Highness Prince Murayel Hassan.
01:52This illustrious visit of the depth of the relations of friendship, cooperation and solidarity between Morocco and China,
02:00in favor of the common will of the two heads of state, His Majesty the King Mohammed VI,
02:05and President Xi Jinping for the consolidation of the strategic sino-Moroccan partnership,
02:12sealed on the occasion of the last visit of the sovereign in China in May 2016.
02:18Still in the diplomatic framework, this Thursday, the Republic of Panama decided to suspend its diplomatic relations with the Pseudo-RASD.
02:37A statement from the Panamanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs underlines that, in accordance with international law,
02:45the Panamanian government has decided to suspend diplomatic relations with the Pseudo-RASD.
02:53The Republic of Panama, favoring the national interest and faithful to the fundamental principles of its foreign policy,
03:01thus reaffirms its conviction of the objectives and values that guide multilateralism, but also reiterates its will to continue to support
03:11the efforts made by the Secretary-General and the international community as part of the United Nations
03:17in view of a just, sustainable and acceptable peaceful solution for the parties concerned by the issue of the SARA, adds the same source.
03:29The relevant Judicial Investigation Central Office of the General Directorate of Territorial Surveillance
03:35and the General Police Headquarters of the Spanish police have proceeded today to dismantle a terrorist cell affiliated to the AESH organization in the Sahel,
03:46consisting of nine members, three of whom were activated in Tetouan and Fniderk and six others in Madrid, Ibiza and Cepta,
03:54the searches carried out at the home of the cases.
03:58The framework of this joint and simultaneous security operation between the Moroccan security services and the Spanish
04:04has allowed the seizure of white weapons and computer equipment, which will be submitted to the necessary digital expertise,
04:10indicates a statement from the IJB.
04:18The day will be long in Baku.
04:20Negotiators from nearly 200 countries, frustrated by two weeks of sterile negotiations,
04:26await today the ultimate proposal of financial compromise between rich and developing countries.
04:32At the UN climate change conference in Azerbaijan, we see glimmers of hope.
04:39To sum up, the German negotiator Jennifer Morgan, but glimmers of hope are not enough,
04:45because there are also poisoned pills to be pursued.
04:48The central issue at the Olympic Stadium in Baku is to determine how much money the developing countries,
04:54in the name of their historical responsibility in climate change,
04:58will agree to transfer to developing countries to help them face a more destructive climate and invest in carbon energies.
05:07Beyond this fog on misunderstandings, rather, at COP29,
05:18the Kingdom of Morocco has just improved its climate policy and management by ranking 8th in the world
05:25and thus becoming one of the leaders in this area.
05:28Let's listen to the analysis of Said Karouk, a climatologist and professor at the Hassan II University in Casablanca.
05:35Morocco has made its national decision to develop and plan its future.
05:45And this future, it has seen through the energy choice it has made,
05:51which is alternative energy, clean energy, solar energy, wind energy.
05:58It has already developed hydroelectric energy, which represents a large part of national use.
06:10And today it is still developing, with great courage, hydrogen energy.
06:24This allows Moroccans and Moroccans in general to place themselves among the leaders in this area worldwide.
06:33And mainly in Africa, it is a leader.
06:37It is the first to have developed its policies and its clean energy plans.
06:46And it continues to do so.
06:48At the same time, it develops with its allies and African countries.
06:54It transfers technology and the principle of winning-winning in its relations with African countries.
07:03And so, at the summit of Baku, as at the summit of Dubai,
07:09Morocco was proud to present its know-how and to present it as an alternative alternative,
07:19as a base of cooperation with African countries.
07:23And from this point of view, it has succeeded in the national bet.
07:27It continues to succeed in developing a climate diplomacy very advanced in the African continent.
07:36And then in the Middle East.
07:38Arrest warrants issued yesterday by the International Criminal Court against Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu,
07:44his former Minister of Defense Yoav Galand, and the head of the armed branch of Hamas,
07:49Mohamed Deyef, for war crimes and against humanity,
07:53have aroused a wave of reactions around the world.
07:57The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell,
08:00said that the arrest warrants had to be respected and applied.
08:03His side, Joe Biden, considered these warrants scandalous
08:06and said that whatever the CPI may imply,
08:09there is no equivalence between Israel and Hamas.
08:13Benyamin Netanyahu called them anti-Semitic decisions.
08:17The CPI issued an international arrest warrant against him and his former Minister of Defense.
08:25The reactions are multiplying after the arrest warrants issued by the CPI against Netanyahu and Galand.
08:33A legal bomb, by virtue of which the two responsible are accused of having used famine as a method of war,
08:41an act severely prohibited by international law.
08:44They are also facing charges of crimes against humanity,
08:48including murder, persecution and other inhuman acts.
08:52For the head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell,
08:55these arrest warrants must be respected and applied.
09:00As I said before, the tragedy in Gaza has to stop.
09:05And now, I will be very sober in my comment.
09:11It is not a political decision.
09:14It is a decision of a court.
09:16As I have already said, the tragedy in Gaza must stop.
09:20It is not a political decision.
09:22It is a decision of a court, a court of justice,
09:25an international court of justice.
09:28The decision of a court must be respected and applied.
09:31I therefore take note of the decision of the International Criminal Court
09:35to issue arrest warrants against Prime Minister Netanyahu,
09:38former Minister of Defense Galand and DAEF.
09:41It is a binding decision for all states,
09:44all states that have gone to court, including all members of the European Union,
09:48are obliged to implement this decision of justice.
09:59On the side of the United States,
10:01Washington provides indefatigable support to the Israeli leaders.
10:04The United States categorically rejects the court's decision
10:07to issue arrest warrants against two high-ranking Israeli officials
10:11to react to a spokesman from the National Security Council of the White House.
10:15A position followed by Argentina,
10:17where the presidency made it known that the arrest warrants
10:20should be applied to all members of the European Union.
10:24A position followed by Argentina,
10:26where the presidency made it known that the arrest warrants
10:29should be applied to all members of the European Union.
10:32against the constant attacks of terrorist organizations.
10:35On the Israeli side, the government accused the court
10:38of having lost all legitimacy by issuing absurd warrants.
10:45Of course, the arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Galand in Israel
10:49are received with great shock.
10:51This court does not see the real situation of the Israelis.
10:54There is seriously a lack of understanding towards us.
10:57Our reality is not theirs,
10:59and then they claim the right to impose these decisions on us.
11:03The scope of these warrants exceeds the judicial framework.
11:06If this case evolves,
11:08it could profoundly influence the perception of international conflicts
11:11and establish a precedent in the fight against the impunity of the leaders.
11:15The international response will be crucial.
11:18Support or opposition,
11:20these reactions will determine the political and legal consequences
11:23for Netanyahu and Galand,
11:25but also for the CPI itself.
11:29The escalation continues in the Middle East.
11:32New Israeli strikes targeted yesterday the southern border of Beirut,
11:36Bastion of Hezbollah,
11:38as well as the east of Lebanon,
11:41where 22 people were killed,
11:43according to local authorities.
11:45May God bless them all.
11:50Strikes on the southern border of Aleppo and raids in the south.
11:54Israeli military aviation carried out three strikes on Haret Hreik
11:58in the southern border of Beirut,
12:00destroying several buildings.
12:02Israeli warplanes also carried out raids on the village of Mansouri in Tyre.
12:07The strikes, which stopped on Tuesday,
12:09resumed the day after the departure of the American emissary to Mosulstein,
12:13trying to break a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.
12:17Under the fire of the shells,
12:19several taxi drivers are stuck in a no-man's land
12:22on the Lebanese-Syrian border
12:24between two huge craters caused by the strikes.
12:32My car is stuck between two craters.
12:34I can't go to Lebanon or Syria.
12:36During this time, we are under the threat of Israeli bombardment.
12:44After the first strike, I stopped my car in front of the crater.
12:48When the second strike took place,
12:50I found myself stuck between the two holes.
12:53I sleep here, between these two holes.
12:55It's an unbearable situation.
12:59On a diplomatic level,
13:01the American emissary to Mosulstein,
13:03which is trying to end a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah,
13:07met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
13:10This visit is part of new efforts
13:13to set up a ceasefire in Lebanon
13:15where the Israeli army is fighting Hezbollah.
13:17The American emissary stated on Wednesday in Beirut
13:20that there is additional progress
13:22around an American plan for a ceasefire
13:24and the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanon
13:27on the basis of UN Resolution 1701,
13:29which ended the previous war in 2006
13:32between Israel and the Lebanese Shiite movement.
13:36Russian-Ukrainian conflict for Vladimir Putin.
13:40The conflict has taken on a global character.
13:43The Russian president does not rule out
13:45hitting the countries whose weapons are used by Ukraine.
13:50Alain Benigni for the details.
13:55After the ATACMS which targeted the Bryansk,
13:58the Storm Shadow bombarded the Russian region of Kursk.
14:01Ukraine strikes hard this time
14:04with a dozen British long-range missiles,
14:07a range exceeding 500 km
14:10and a speed of 1,163 km per hour.
14:13A second attack in less than 48 hours on Russian territory
14:17which ended up getting Vladimir Putin out of his mutiny.
14:24On November 19, we were attacked
14:26with six American-made operational and tactical ATACMS missiles.
14:31And on November 21, we were attacked again
14:34with British-made Storm Shadow missiles
14:37and American-made IMARS.
14:40Military installations were hit in the regions of Bryansk and Kursk.
14:45This leads us to declare that the regional conflict in Ukraine,
14:49caused by the West, has now taken on a global character.
14:53The regional conflict in Ukraine has acquired global elements.
15:01In his speech, the Russian president said
15:04that Russia had hit Ukraine on the city of Dnipro
15:07with a non-nuclear hypersonic ballistic missile of medium range.
15:12Putin warned that he did not exclude the possibility
15:15of hitting Western countries,
15:17thus intensifying the tensions already high between Russia and the West.
15:22On Ukraine, this is a serious moment that I come before the committee.
15:28We have seen in recent weeks a very sharp escalation
15:31by Putin and his forces.
15:33They intensified their attacks against the electric system in Ukraine
15:37just a few months before the winter.
15:39They intensified their attacks against civilian centers
15:42and they killed children.
15:44Russia also deployed at least 10,000 North Korean soldiers
15:47on the front line.
15:49The British government must considerably intensify
15:52its support for Ukraine.
16:02The Secretary of State for British Defence
16:05has stated that the EU member states
16:07must assume a greater share of the work
16:10to counter Russian threats.
16:12Very serious threats, in fact, according to observers,
16:15because according to Putin's new doctrine
16:18on the use of nuclear weapons,
16:20which was made official last Tuesday,
16:22Russia can now resort to it in the event of a massive attack
16:25by a non-nuclear country,
16:27but supported by a nuclear power.
16:29Clear reference to Ukraine and the United States.
16:33The Mohamed VI Foundation of African Ulema
16:36celebrates the 60th anniversary of the building
16:39of the Grand Mosque of Dakar,
16:42inaugurated on March 27, 1964,
16:45by His Majesty the King Hassan II
16:47and the former president of Senegal,
16:49Leopold Sedar Senghor.
16:51On this occasion, an official ceremony
16:53was organized in Dakar
16:55to commemorate the reaffirmation
16:57of spiritual and historical relations
17:00between the Kingdom of Morocco
17:02and the Republic of Senegal,
17:04indicated by the Foundation in a statement.
17:06This commemoration includes, among other things,
17:09the organization this Friday and tomorrow
17:11of an international symposium
17:13under the theme
17:14The Values of Peace and Living Together
17:17in the African context
17:19and will see the participation
17:21of a college of Moroccan scholars and experts.
17:24Senegal is the same as other neighboring countries.
17:28In Senegal, the end of the fishing agreements
17:31with the European Union
17:33is perceived as good news for fishermen.
17:36In Dakar, civil society
17:38applauds and encourages these government dynamics
17:41where Senegalese and Mozambicans
17:43tell us more.
17:46In Senegal, the presence of foreign refugees
17:49has always been a subject of debate
17:51by fishermen.
17:52This is how some actors
17:54of the Senegalese civil society
17:56celebrate the end of the fishing agreements
17:58with the EU.
17:59These agreements have been denounced for a long time.
18:02We are among those who denounced them.
18:04At the time, I remember,
18:06we were once, twice, three times,
18:08several times in the European Union in Brussels
18:11and to tell them, with these agreements,
18:13you took the fish out of our mouths.
18:16And when you took the fish out of our mouths,
18:19the young people who allowed us
18:21to go and catch these fish at sea
18:24had nothing left to fish
18:26and that, consequently,
18:28one of the only alternatives
18:30for these young people
18:32was to take the same fishing boats
18:35to cross the Atlantic and go to Europe.
18:38In these fishing boats in Dakar,
18:40the actors of the sector appreciate this decision.
18:45It is necessary to materialize
18:47the follow-up of the end of the agreements
18:49with the European Union
18:51and the Senegalese government
18:53to fight against the Chinese boats
18:55that work with the Senegalese.
18:57The boats destroyed the entire sea.
19:00Now, the government
19:02has decided not to renew
19:04the fishing agreements
19:06with the European Union.
19:08We also ask the authorities
19:10to stay on their guard
19:12regarding the Senegalese
19:14who work in this sector.
19:21For a fair and equitable renegotiation
19:23of the fishing agreements,
19:25some call for the control
19:27of foreign and Senegalese boats.
19:29We will have to try to see
19:31how many Senegalese
19:33or European or Asian boats
19:35have been destroyed.
19:37Because there were also
19:39many fraudulent boats
19:41that crossed the oceans
19:43and on which often
19:45the controllers
19:47did not have so much power.
19:49I think we can evaluate all this.
19:51In my opinion,
19:53the new government will probably
19:55evaluate all this to see
19:57how many boats
19:59have been destroyed.
20:01The current Senegalese authorities
20:03are committed to a protection
20:05of the Atlantic resources,
20:07which salutes the actors of fishing.
20:09In return, we also have
20:11the phase of revising
20:13the 2024-2025 electoral list
20:15that was completed
20:17on November 17
20:19in Côte d'Ivoire
20:21after an extension of one week
20:23at the request of political actors.
20:25The Independent Electoral Commission
20:27has made the point
20:29on this crucial step
20:31in the upcoming elections.
20:33More details with Mel Berchel
20:35and Herman Doggo.
20:37From October 19
20:39to November 17, 2024,
20:41the Independent Electoral Commission
20:43conducted the phase of revising
20:45the 2024-2025 electoral list.
20:47A seven-day extension
20:49at the request of political parties
20:51allowed to maximize
20:53the enrollment of voters,
20:55which is a key factor
20:57in the preparation of the elections.
20:59At the end of this operation,
21:01the Independent Electoral Commission
21:03presented raw data
21:05still subject to verification
21:07and treatment.

22:23electoral process in the future, even if the challenges remain to be raised to
22:27guarantee a wider participation of voters.
22:31Let's talk culture with the appreciation of the traditional music instruments of
22:36Africa, which was at the center of a conference organized at the Museum
22:40MoMA de CIS of Modern and Contemporary Art of Rabat, as part of the 11th
22:45edition of the Visa4Music festival. The participants highlighted the
22:51challenges of preserving and valuing traditional music instruments,
22:56favoring an exchange of knowledge and knowledge on the various themes
23:02to promote the musical cultural heritage, notably African and Moroccan.
23:15And placed under the high patronage of His Majesty the King MoMA de CIS
23:43the 11th edition of Visa4Music and the inevitable rendezvous of
23:48African and Middle Eastern music, which will make the city of Rabat vibrate
23:54until Saturday morning. More than 1,000 professionals from the
23:58musical industry and hundreds of artists from all over the world
24:03are taking part. Ibrahim El Majned, artistic director and promoter of the festival,
24:41More than 1,000 professionals from almost 80 countries around the world are taking part.
24:46All this proves that it is an inevitable rendezvous here in Africa,
24:53which allows to organize a very unique festival of great quality,
24:58but also to organize a whole debate and speed-meeting around this festival,
25:08which today has become the African platform dedicated to the creative industries,
25:14and in any case in the music sector.
