Morocco begins silent period with new promises
The article discusses the end of election campaigns in Morocco and the preparations for the silence period before the vote to renew the House of Representatives, in which 28 parties are competing for 395 seats. The campaigns focus on promises to raise wages, reduce income taxes, and provide grants for the unemployed and those wishing to marry, with political parties racing to offer unprecedented material promises backed by large budgets. Despite an economic growth rate of around 5% projected for 2025, the unemployment rate remains at 13%, and over 30% of Moroccans are outside the coverage of health services. There are challenges in implementing promises to increase wages and support allocations due to budget deficits. Analyses indicate that voter turnout among young people, especially those aged 18 to 25, is very low, mainly due to disillusionment. Political parties have pledged to improve social and economic conditions and to form a new government after the elections.
