Al-Mansouri's consultations point to four-party coalition
The article discusses the formation of a new government in Morocco following the elections held on September 23, 2026. The main parties are moving toward potential coalition agreements led by appointed Prime Minister Fatima Zahra Al-Mansouri. The Authenticity and Modernity Party topped the results with 97 seats but does not hold an outright majority, prompting the need to seek alliances with other parties. The most likely scenario is the formation of a government comprising four parties: the Authenticity and Modernity Party, the National Rally for Independents, the Independence Party, and the Socialist Union. This coalition would give them a comfortable majority of 217 seats, well above the 198 seats needed for a parliamentary majority. It is known that relations between the parties experienced tensions and political confrontations prior to the elections, which could complicate the formation of alliances. The Justice and Development Party has decided to remain in opposition, while the Popular Movement and other factions continue to study their options. The most realistic plan appears to be a coalition of four parties, based on an assessment of political and parliamentary calculations.
