00:00Welcome to a new edition of Le Média Morning, here are the headlines.
00:25In Morocco, the Constitutional Court stated that the Organic Law No. 9715, which defines the conditions and modalities of exercise of the right to strike, is in accordance with the Constitution.
00:40Wars, conflicts, violence and persecution will force 6.7 million people to flee their homes in the next two years, warns a Danish humanitarian NGO. More details on this day.
00:56In the Democratic Republic of Congo, nearly 20 Burundian soldiers were killed in clashes against the armed group M23, according to military sources.
01:10In a long-awaited decision in Morocco, the Constitutional Court stated that the Organic Law No. 9715, which defines the conditions and modalities of exercise of the right to strike, is in accordance with the Constitution.
01:28Its decision, the Constitutional Court underlined that its role is to guarantee the respect of the Constitution, both on the formal and substantial level, in reference to the principles enunciated in the Third Alinea of Article 6.
01:44It added that the first, fourth and fifth paragraphs of the law only enunciate international principles and conventions related to the exercise of the right to strike, without introducing new conditions that could obstruct this right.
01:58One of the crucial points of the decision is the confirmation that the right to strike is explicitly guaranteed by the last Alinea of Article 29 of the Constitution.
02:14Heavy winds and snowfalls are expected in Morocco.
02:19This orange alert will continue until Saturday, with rains between 50 and 70 mm.
02:30Snowfalls over 1,800 m are expected in the provinces of Ifrane, Azelal, Bniblen and Middels.
02:48This phenomenon also concerns the houses of Gnifra, Boulmane, Huseymach, Feshawen, Sfrou and Theroudens.
02:55Recent rains that have fallen in different regions of the kingdom since the beginning of March have revived the hopes of farmers for a good agricultural season.
03:11These rains will contribute to improving vegetation, to reducing the price of forage and to encourage farmers to diversify their activities after prolonged drought.
03:26Several regions of the kingdom are experiencing heavy rainfall.
03:32These have a positive impact on the main spring crops, giving farmers in the Aljadida region great hope.
03:40These rains will reduce the dependence on irrigation, which has become expensive due to the shortage of water.
03:45They will allow a better distribution of cultivated areas and will contribute to the reconstruction of water sources.
03:51Recent rainfall will save this agricultural season.
03:58As for the cereals sown in spring, 40% of the cultivated areas should yield good results.
04:04In the region of Fesmekne, these rains have revitalized many streams and valleys that had dried up or whose flow had greatly decreased.
04:14Rainfalls have reached 73 mm since the beginning of March.
04:20Although this year was marked by a shortage of rain, the recent rains will allow a notable development of spring crops.
04:32The rainfall recorded last week contributed to the reconstruction of the basins belonging to the Dommerbeer hydrographic basin.
04:41The global average of rainfall recorded in this basin is 61 mm and the level of the dams of the Dommerbeer basin has reached 80 mm.
04:51Still in Morocco, to protect consumers, the Ministry of the Interior has set up a unified telephone number, 5757.
04:59Moroccans are very concerned about the safety of consumers.
05:04The Ministry of the Interior has set up a telephone number, 5757.
05:11Still in Morocco, to protect consumers, the Ministry of the Interior has set up a unified telephone number, 5757.
05:20Moroccans are encouraged to denounce and submit complaints or observations relating to the protection of consumers.
05:30Look, this is a report by cinema journalist Amal Youssef Ouhamou. The story and the diagram are displayed.
05:37The telephone number, 5757, has been launched in all the regions and provinces of the Kingdom.
05:44The objective is to allow citizens to report their complaints and make their observations on all the issues related to the market and the protection of consumers during the month of Ramadan.
05:54This number is open 7 days a week from 9am to 6pm and the cell in charge receives notifications of fraud cases, commercial practices of loyalties and competition of loyalties.
06:06This number offers consumers and citizens the opportunity to contact directly the service in charge of receiving complaints in the municipality of Rabat.
06:20Its objective is to allow consumers to report their concerns regarding prices, quality, preparation and storage conditions of consumer products.
06:31Since the beginning of this holy month, the municipality of Rabat has received more than 89 appeals, 73 of which are related to the protection of consumers.
06:3945 appeals are in the state of illegal commercial practices, while 42 others have been handled as part of interventions on the ground of the price control and supply commissions.
06:50Our cell receives appeals from consumers. The first step is to classify the appeal according to its content, whether it is a complaint, a report or simply a request for information.
07:08After this initial exchange, we proceed to a second analysis of the appeal to determine whether we must transfer it to the ground committee of the municipality of Rabat.
07:16If the complaint concerns an area outside Rabat, it is sent to the concerned teams.
07:28The central information system dedicated to this service generates daily statistics on the number of complaints received and analyzed.
07:35The main objective is to identify market trends within each municipality.
07:43Wars, conflicts, violence and persecution will force 7.7 million people to flee their homes in the next two years.
07:52This Friday, a Danish humanitarian NGO, the devastating cuts of international aid by large countries such as the United States and Germany,
08:03have deprived millions of vulnerable people of essential support for their survival.
08:10The Danish Council for Refugees said that according to this NGO, the number of displaced people in the world is currently 122.6 million.
08:19A stupefying peak of forced displacement of 4.2 million people is expected in 2025.
08:27In 2026, estimates show that 2.5 million forced displacements will take place in the world.
08:34Civil wars in Sudan and Burma will represent almost half of all planned movements.
08:40Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Syria, Yemen and Venezuela should also experience an increase in displacement
08:48due to armed conflicts, climate change, the consequences of war and socio-economic instability.
08:59Direction La Serie, where the new man of the country greets a new page in history
09:05by signing a constitutional declaration for a transitional period of five years.
09:13The new constitutional declaration establishes a strict separation of powers in Syria.
09:19It guarantees the freedom of expression and the political and economic rights of women.
09:24The announcement of the constitutional declaration intervenes shortly after the violence that broke out in the west of the country.
09:31These hostilities, perpetrated following the attack of the late President Bashar al-Assad, amounted to 1,476 deaths.
09:46In the news also, about twenty Burundian soldiers fighting the armed group M23 and its Rwandan allies
09:54on the side of the Congolese army in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo, were killed in clashes on Monday and Tuesday.
10:02We have unfortunately lost about twenty soldiers.
10:06A dozen others were injured when the M23 and the Rwandan soldiers launched an assault
10:11against our positions in Kaziba, in the mountains overlooking the plain of Ruzizi.
10:19Another military source estimated that between 22 and 25 Burundian soldiers had been killed.
10:26The M23, which claims to be fighting to defend the interests of the Tutsi populations of the east of the RDC,
10:33is supported by experts by some 4,000 Rwandan soldiers in favor of an offensive.
10:39In recent months, the M23 and its allies have taken control since January of a portion of the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo,
10:46including the cities of Goma and Bukavu, and continued their progress in several directions.
10:58The Senegalese Association, having studied and worked in Morocco, has initiated an unprecedented meeting in Dakar.
11:06The goal is to strengthen the links between Moroccan and Senegalese talents.
11:12This initiative aims to create a platform for dialogue and opportunity,
11:17favoring exchanges between entrepreneurs, decision-makers and professionals from the two countries.
11:23The report is brought to you by Regis Moukila and Moussa Nder.
11:28The first edition of this meeting aims to establish a framework for exchange between Senegalese
11:34and Senegalese people living in Morocco, public figures, and Moroccan and Senegalese businesses in the Senegalese territory.
11:42The objective was to be able to bring them together in the context of an event of this kind,
11:46and then to exchange, to discuss on given topics, but also to be able to work together,
11:52to create business opportunities, professional opportunities, through exchange of business cards, meetings,
11:58quite simply to highlight the talents of our community.
12:02This event, which coincides with the celebration on March 27 next year,
12:07the 60th anniversary of the signing of the Convention between Morocco and Senegal,
12:12contributes to strengthen the links of fraternity and solidarity between Dakar and Rabat.
12:18The history of our partnership is a wealth, but our responsibility is to amplify it,
12:25to inscribe it in modernity, and to pass it on to future generations.
12:31It is not a fixed heritage, it is a flame to be carried higher and higher.
12:39So, together, let's continue to build.
12:43Together, let's open new perspectives.
12:47Together, let's shine the friendship between Morocco and Senegal.
12:54Through these exchanges, Moroccans and Senegalese draw the outlines of a united Africa
12:59committed to a true policy of integration.
13:03The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has once become the Ministry of African Integration and Foreign Affairs.
13:10This shows the importance of our government in all matters of African integration.
13:16And I said earlier, if you see the model of integration that we have with the Kingdom of Morocco,
13:22it must be able to inspire us for other African countries.
13:25This forum was also an opportunity for the two nations to celebrate the progress made,
13:31especially in the economic field.
13:33The Moroccan Investment Club in Senegal has encouraged many Moroccan companies
13:40to invest here, in this country of the Teranga.
13:44And vice versa, we also encouraged Senegalese to invest in Morocco.
13:50This meeting illustrates the solidity of the partnership between Morocco and Senegal.
13:55A cooperation that, over the years, has not ceased to consolidate and open new perspectives.
14:04In Mali, the conference room of the Université COSUP Alternance
14:10housed the second citizen masterclass,
14:14hosted by the Minister of Youth, Sports and Citizen Construction
14:18and his counterpart of higher education.
14:21It was a question of talking about the role and place of youth in the re-founding of Mali.
14:28Here is a report from our correspondent, Mohamed Taniouko.
14:33After the School of Citizenship, the ministerial meetings in Kenya,
14:37the Minister of Youth has just started a series of masterclasses
14:42that will lead him to several universities to talk about citizenship and civilization
14:47and the role of youth in the re-founding of Mali.
14:51I think it is in line with all that could be in line with the great reforms
14:56that we are doing and the difficulties that we see in these areas,
14:59at the level of the communities, at the level of the country.
15:02And this investment requires today an investment in line with the respect of the laws.
15:07First of all, to know that the citizen is the one who contributes to the evolution and development of his country.
15:14And it goes through several things, including taxes and taxes, but also civic animation.
15:20This initiative, which is in its second stage,
15:23aims to imbue students with notions of civilization, of citizenship,
15:28so that they can inform each other and contribute in their turn to the development of the country.
15:35The young students are the vectors of this understanding,
15:40but also the vectors of this awareness of the rest of the population,
15:44so that our country can benefit from solidarity
15:48and that this solidarity can solve the great problems that Mali is facing.
15:54Visibly satisfied that his university has welcomed this second ministerial masterclass,
16:00the director-general of the Ecosup Alternance ensures that his students
16:05will fully play their role in the development and prosperity of Mali.
16:10It allows them to give the information correctly.
16:14As time goes by, the population will be aware.
16:18And the future is the youth.
16:20It is these young people today who can give information with precision to other people
16:25so that we can really get out of this problem.
16:29The visit of the basketball court offered to the youth of the municipality
16:33by the director of the university in Haiti is one of the highlights of this day.
16:39And we go to Guinea, where the authorities have signed a protocol of agreement
16:44with the actors involved in trade to relieve consumers during Ramadan and the Christian Kareem.
16:53Fixed prices are not respected by some traders.
16:56The Union for the Defense of Consumers of Guinea calls on the authorities of the transition.
17:02This is a report from our correspondent in Conakry, Idriss Asissi.
17:07A few days after the signing of an agreement that establishes the prices of raw materials of first necessity
17:13during this month of penance, the capital markets display another image.
17:18Fixed prices are not respected by a law.
17:21This lady explains why it is impossible for her to respect the prices in accordance with the agreements signed.
17:28Some of us cannot respect the agreement there.
17:31If you have to move to go buy at the price that the state has set,
17:36you are obliged to pay those who embark and unload your luggage.
17:40You have to pay the transport to rally your shop, which is in high value.
17:44The raw materials of first necessity are not the only products to know fixed prices.
17:49Gombo, a vegetable that is almost indispensable in the preparation of several local recipes, is known to have inflation.
17:56Customers often tax us to sell our vegetables for a high price,
18:00but there are factors that they do not master in this trade.
18:04The price of the Gombo bag has tripled.
18:07And those with whom we buy, we discuss the price of the bag already packed.
18:13We don't have time to check the quality of the product.
18:16We also resell according to what is good, to at least allow us to recover the purchase price.
18:22The government must make strong decisions.
18:26The vegetables are grown here and the farmers are accompanied.
18:31Why do they sell us expensive then?
18:33The lack of respect for the content of the agreement protocol does not surprise the Union for the Defense of Consumers of Guinea.
18:40For its president, the government and the actors involved in the signing of this agreement did not take into account all aspects on the ground.
18:48How can the government fix prices by region?
18:51Encourage the fixation?
18:53While it is a tariff that the government has always subsidized.
18:56When you take the case of rice, for example, under each ton of rice, the state has given up $100.
19:02When you take sugar, under each ton of sugar, the state gives up $200 from the customs cordon.
19:08But today, all the efforts that the state is making are not in the hands of consumers.
19:12Article 5 of this protocol provides for the establishment of a mixed team to check the proper application of the content.
19:20Traders who do not respect the clauses of the agreement are exposed to the reimbursement of the facilitation granted and to the payment of penalties in accordance with the Customs Code.
19:32The moon is going red in favor of a total eclipse this Friday.
19:39A rare celestial spectacle, the lunar eclipse, the first of the year, visible in its totality phase since the American continent,
19:47a large part of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, as well as to the far west of Europe and Africa.
19:54This phenomenon occurs about twice a year when the sun, the earth and the moon are perfectly aligned and that the moon is in its full phase.
20:06The star slides in the shadow of the earth, which then makes a screen with solar rays and gradually loses its white glow.
20:15But during this phenomenon, the moon does not completely erase the light and takes a reddish color.
20:27The best of the guests of Mediain TV is right now.
20:33All the information from Moscow indicates that Vladimir Putin refuses this 30-day strike because the Russian leadership estimates that it would be an opportunity for the Ukrainian army, for Vladimir Zelensky, to recover.
21:01We do not yet have an official statement from Vladimir Putin, but his entourage indicates that there is a Russian refusal of this strike in order not to give the opportunity to the Ukrainian army and Vladimir Zelensky to recover.
21:20What we do not know yet is what alternative the Russians will offer to the American emissary visiting Moscow.
21:31Will they offer him a real long-term ceasefire with their conditions?
21:37All the questions are around this point.
21:43What do the Russians want as an alternative to this dream that was realized at the Jeddah Summit in Saudi Arabia?
21:53It is an election that respects first of all the internal regulation of the Economic Commission of Africa of the United Nations.
22:02This means that most of the African states have voted for Morocco, given its actions at the African level in general and at the level of the African Union in particular.
22:15It is an election that respects first of all the actions at the African level in general and at the level of the African Union in particular.
22:31It is an election that respects first of all the actions at the African level in general and at the level of the African Union in particular.
22:50I think that it is not Ramadan that has caused this rise in prices, but we have already, for two consecutive years,
22:58following the inflationary crisis and everything that has come after this crisis,
23:06whether it is the production at the national level of certain food or agricultural products,
23:12whether it is the importation of certain food products in the direction of Morocco.
23:19These successive crises have really caused a cascade, we are talking about a cascade of rises in prices
23:29and a rising trend that has continued to evolve until today, until the month of Ramadan.
23:36Regarding the prices, for example, of oil or fish,
23:39I do not think that it is because of the high demand during the month of Ramadan that these prices have reached these new records.
23:50We must recall the theme of the current session,
23:52make progress on the implementation of the agreement on the creation of the Zlekaf,
23:56a proposal of action, a leading strategy of transformation.
23:59And we are talking about transformation. Why are we talking about transformation?
24:02Because we are counting on the Zlekaf to transform the African economy,
24:06so that the African economy frees itself from this burden of income economy,
24:12specialized for many countries in the export of raw materials.
24:18In this sense, we are counting on the Zlekaf to create regional value chains.
24:24We are counting on the Zlekaf to integrate regional value chains.
24:30We are counting on the Zlekaf to reposition Africa on world trade.
24:37This is the Zlekaf.
24:39The Zlekaf is not just a question of a theoretical free trade agreement.
24:42No, it is practical.
24:43There are commissions that are working.
24:45And so far, we have established three lists of products to liberalize.
24:52Each list has its tendency and speed of liberalization.
25:05Voilà qui referme cette édition. Restez avec nous sur Mediain TV.
