Leftist coalition eyes alliances for stronger bloc

The article focused on the results of the Moroccan legislative elections held on September 23, 2026. It showed the rise of the Authenticity and Modernity Party to the first position with 97 seats, and the return of the Justice and Development Party to Parliament with 54 seats, reflecting shifts in the balance of power. In the context of the Moroccan left, attention was drawn again to the "Left Alliance," which brought together the Unified Socialist Party and the Democratic Left Federation. This alliance increased its representation to 8 seats from 2 in the 2021 elections. Additionally, calculations indicated that the combined seats of the Socialist Progress and Happiness Party (19 seats), the Democratic Forces Front (2 seats), and the Unionist Party (26 seats) surpass the total achieved by the Justice and Development Party. This opens up the possibility of forming a joint parliamentary bloc. However, such an alliance requires political organization and mutual understanding, especially since forming an independent parliamentary group requires at least 20 deputies, necessitating coordination among various parties. In this context, the Secretary-General of the Unified Socialist Party confirmed that the current alliance is based on shared principles and political objectives, and he believes that expanding the alliance requires clear stances on issues such as national sovereignty and social justice, with potential agreement among the parties on forming a unified parliamentary team that enhances the left's presence in Parliament and influences upcoming legislative policies.
