At the call of a collective of political, trade union and organizational bodies, including the Moroccan Association for Support to the Palestinian Struggle and the National Action Group for Palestine, some ten thousand demonstrators took part on Sunday, February 9, 2020, in a national march, to reiterate Morocco’s constant support for the Palestinian cause.
The "deal of the century" proposed by Donald Trump as a strategy for resolving the Palestinian crisis continues to provoke reactions. In addition to calling for a national march this Sunday in Rabat against this deal, the Moroccan collective rejects the recent statements of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nasser Bourita, in which he had affirmed that Moroccans "should not be more Palestinian than the Palestinians themselves".
On January 30, in front of the US diplomatic representation in Casablanca , pro-Palestinian Moroccans demonstrated against what they call the "deal of the century". This is a plan made public by US President Donald Trump two days earlier as a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The blunders of the head of government, Saâdeddine El Othmani , do not go unnoticed on the web. Internet users, on the lookout for the slightest misstep, did not miss the big pearl he let slip in one of his tweets.
The position of Morocco , regarding the "deal of the century" proposed by US President Donald Trump to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, has been welcomed by many Israeli media.
The Council of the Arab League condemned, on Saturday in Cairo, the Arab rejection of the American-Israeli "deal of the century".
Morocco maintains its position on the Palestinian issue and hopes that the countries involved in resolving this crisis will succeed in reaching a fair and definitive solution that can do justice to the Palestinian people. It reiterated this on Saturday in Cairo during an extraordinary meeting of the Foreign Ministers of the Arab League Council.
The "deal of the century", proposed by Donald Trump to help find a definitive solution to the Israeli-Palestinian crisis, is not to the liking of some observers of public life. Many organizations like Al Adl Ihssan join the PJD and the PPS and categorically reject this proposal, which they describe as a "conspiracy" and call for a "mobilization of the elite to put pressure on the States".
King Mohammed VI received congratulations from the International Committee for the Support of the Palestinian People. His unlimited support for the Palestinian cause and Al Quds was saluted and thanked.
Under house arrest for 4 years without any judicial conviction, the political exile and Doctor of Pharmacy, originally from Palestine, Mohamed Al Ashram, is also subject to an expulsion order. He is accused of having made "virulent remarks against France and the West".
Scheduled in the agenda of the visit of the US Secretary of State, the Mike Pompeo-Mohammed VI meeting did not take place due to "incompatibility of schedules" and a "time difference" problem. Beyond these official reasons given, there are undoubtedly unspoken reasons.
Morocco has reaffirmed its total and unwavering support for the Palestinian cause and the right of its people to establish an "independent and viable State". This was on the occasion of the extraordinary meeting of the Council of Arab Foreign Ministers, organized in Cairo.
