00:00Good evening everyone, let's start with the headlines.
00:24The opening ceremony of Notre-Dame de Paris began an hour ago,
00:29in the presence of several personalities,
00:32including Prince Moulay Rashid and US President Donald Trump.
00:36After the speech of Emmanuel Macron, a concert and a show will be given on the parvis.
00:46And in the Middle East conflict, rebel factions announce
00:49that they have begun to encircle the Syrian capital Damascus,
00:53after taking control of the southern province of Daraa.
01:01And the South Korean president escaped this Saturday to the destitution.
01:05A motion submitted by the opposition did not collect the necessary quorum
01:10because of the boycott of the deputies of the ruling party.
01:13Good evening, His Royal Highness Prince Moulay Rashid
01:22was welcomed by French President Emmanuel Macron
01:25at the opening ceremony of Notre-Dame de Paris.
01:29A ceremony that has just begun in the presence of many heads of state.
01:33After the speech of Emmanuel Macron, a concert and a show will be given on the parvis.
01:40Devastated by a fire in 2019, Notre-Dame de Paris opens its doors.
01:46After five years of work, the cathedral has been rebuilt
01:50identical to the one designed in the 19th century.
02:00Initiated under the patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI on the theme
02:04Reconstructing Trust for a United and Plural World,
02:08the meetings of the University of Fes on the future of civilizations
02:13continue this Saturday in Fes.
02:15These meetings focus on several axes,
02:18linked among other things to peace, migration and international cooperation.
02:23According to the organizers, these meetings will be carried out
02:26by the determination to promote dialogue,
02:29in order to build common solutions to global problems
02:32such as the impacts of artificial intelligence on integrity
02:37and the extreme climatic phenomenon or forced migration.
02:47Direction to the south of the kingdom and more precisely
02:50Dakhla for the second and last day of the MBS Sahara Forum,
02:53organized by Morocco Diplomatique.
02:55The event, which is in its fourth edition, is based on the theme
02:59King Mohammed VI, 25 years of royal vision, 10 years of fate of the southern provinces.
03:04Precisions with Namaam Al Ainain, the story of Alaa Ben Ali.
03:09The city of Dakhla welcomes this Friday and Saturday
03:12the fourth edition of the MBS Sahara Forum.
03:15An important meeting paying tribute to two events
03:18marking the contemporary history of the kingdom.
03:20The 25 years of reign of His Majesty King Mohammed VI
03:23and the 10 years of the Development Programme of the Southern Provinces.
03:26The discussions will focus on the attractiveness of the region,
03:29the key role of infrastructures and southern cooperation,
03:33an angular stone of Moroccan diplomacy.
03:36I would say that it was 25 years of militancy for the Moroccan Sahara.
03:42It was 25 years of firmness in defense.
03:45It was 25 years of explanation.
03:48It is 25 years that have been crowned by the recognition of several powers,
03:53especially in the United States, in France,
03:56of the Moroccan Sahara,
03:59of a large international support,
04:04even unprecedented,
04:06to the Moroccan initiative of autonomy
04:08by the four continents,
04:11and more particularly Europe,
04:13with practically the majority of states.
04:16We see very well that with modern infrastructures,
04:20with social development,
04:22the human being at the heart of the whole strategy,
04:26Morocco today has another face.
04:29And the Southern Provinces, I can say that in 10 years,
04:32it is the showcase of the evolution of Morocco.
04:37It is the showcase of all this development that amazes.
04:41Today we have a Morocco that plays in the court of the greats,
04:46under the visionary leadership of His Majesty the King,
04:50who imposes himself by his strategy,
04:53who imposes himself by his innovation,
04:57his stability, his security and many others.
05:03The debates will address investment opportunities,
05:06the impacts of energy and digital transitions,
05:09as well as efforts to position the Southern Provinces
05:12as an engine of economic growth
05:14and a point of connection between Africa and the rest of the world.
05:20I think these are initiatives that go in the right direction,
05:23to show the excellent work that His Majesty is doing.
05:27I was a student here in Morocco,
05:30and a few years after my return to the country,
05:34I came back here and I saw a country on the move,
05:37a positive evolution.
05:39So I think it is important that this fact is amplified,
05:46because we should not wait for others to tell our stories,
05:50for others to say what is good for us.
05:53It is important that Africans take this communication into their own hands.
05:58Morocco has made too much progress,
06:02even saying excellences at the diplomatic level.
06:08And this, the speech this morning,
06:11proves this.
06:13At the economic level,
06:15the development of Accra,
06:19and not only,
06:21as I said, I have been here for three years,
06:24I see, I observe,
06:26every day,
06:28construction sites,
06:30investment,
06:32development.
06:34I told my colleague,
06:36it is not by foot,
06:38even by car,
06:40Morocco is flying.
06:42And I can't imagine,
06:44in 5-10 years,
06:46what it will become.
06:49The theme for this 4th edition,
06:52King Mohammed VI, 25 years of royal vision,
06:5510 years of the fate of the southern provinces,
06:58momentum of national and continental progress.
07:01This theme reflects the aspirations of Morocco
07:03to continue to play a key role on the African and international scene.
07:07This framework of discussion is also a platform
07:10where diplomats, political decision-makers, economists and intellectuals
07:14can exchange on essential themes
07:16for the development of the kingdom and the continent.
07:21And now, the series where the offensive of the rebels
07:25against the regime of Bachar Al-Assad continues.
07:28After taking Aleppo, the big city of the north,
07:31and Hamas in the center of the country,
07:33the fighters are at the gates of Homs
07:35and 20 km from the capital, Damascus.
07:37The leaders of Turkish, Russian and Iranian diplomacy
07:40exchanged this Saturday
07:42about this crisis.
07:44Wael Jalil for the details.
07:50The rebel factions advance towards Homs
07:52and get closer to Damascus.
07:54The Syrian rebels continue their flamboyant offensive
07:57after capturing Aleppo and Hamas
08:00against the weak resistance of the government forces.
08:03Thousands of people fled the city of Homs
08:05in the center of Syria
08:07while the insurgents continue their offensive
08:09towards the capital of the country
08:11with the aim of overthrowing President Bachar Al-Assad.
08:13The city of Homs,
08:15which some parts were controlled by the insurgents
08:17until 2014,
08:19is in a strategic zone between Damascus
08:21and the coastal provinces of Latakia and Tartus
08:24where Bachar Al-Assad still plays a large support.
08:29We, the forces of the military council of Deir ez-Zor
08:32have entered the city of Deir ez-Zor
08:34in the district of Al-Qosr
08:36and we have liberated the prisoners.
08:38Deir ez-Zor is now under the control
08:40of the Syrian Democratic Forces.
08:42We are the sons of Deir ez-Zor
08:44and we have liberated our city from the Syrian regime,
08:46the government of Damascus and the Iranian militias.
08:49The pressure on the Syrian government
08:51intensifies on several fronts.
08:53In the east of the country,
08:55the coalition of the Syrian Democratic Forces
08:57led by the Kurds,
08:59has declared that it has taken control of several areas
09:01on the border with Iraq,
09:03which would bring them closer to the post-border of Bukamal
09:05held by the government.
09:07The latter is vital for the forces of Bachar Al-Assad
09:09because it constitutes the gateway
09:11from the corridor to Iran,
09:13a supply line for the fighters
09:15supported by Iran,
09:17including the Lebanese Hezbollah.
09:21The military operations unit
09:23announces the liberation of the entire district
09:25and the city of Al-Bath.
09:27Praise be to God!
09:31After years of confinement
09:33in the northwest of the country,
09:35the insurgents erupted a week ago
09:37in the largest city in Syria, Aleppo,
09:39and have not ceased to advance since.
09:41This sudden offensive shook the impasse
09:43in which the Syrian civil war
09:45had been going on for nearly five years,
09:47which began nearly 14 years ago.
09:49So far, the Syrian army
09:51has not managed to set up
09:53enough counter-offensives
09:55to stop the advance of the opposition.
09:57Allied with Syria for a long time,
09:59Russia remains relatively
10:01behind the conflict.
10:03The majority of troops and Russian resources
10:05are mobilized by the war in Ukraine.
10:09In the same register,
10:11the UN Special Envoy for Syria,
10:13Geir Pedersen,
10:15called today or calmed down in the country
10:17after the rampant advance of the rebels
10:19in recent days.
10:21He called to avoid a bloodbath
10:23and to protect civilians
10:25in accordance with international humanitarian law.
10:27It was during the Doha Forum
10:29where he also called to launch
10:31a process that leads to the realization
10:33of legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people.
10:35As for him, the elected American president,
10:37Donald Trump,
10:39said this Saturday
10:41that the United States should not
10:43get involved in the situation in Syria.
10:45This is not our fight,
10:47according to his own words.
10:51And we said it in title,
10:53the South Korean president
10:55has escaped today to the destitution.
10:57A motion filed by the opposition
10:59did not collect the necessary quorum
11:01due to the boycott of the deputies
11:03of the party in power.
11:05A total of 200 votes out of 300
11:07were necessary to dismiss the Korean head of state,
11:09but only 195 deputies
11:11participated in the scouting.
11:13Rather, after his failed attempt
11:15to impose martial law,
11:17the South Korean president,
11:19President Moon Jae-in,
11:21had presented his sincere apologies
11:23to the Korean people.
11:25Direction Montevideo,
11:27where the summit of the countries
11:29of the Mercosur is held,
11:31the president of the European Commission,
11:33Ursula von der Leyen,
11:35who announced the signing
11:37of a controversial trade alliance
11:39with the five Latin American countries,
11:41clashed with the opposition
11:43of France and Italy.
11:45The lighting with Soheil Jalil.
11:49The Mercosur and the European Union
11:51announce a free trade agreement.
11:53The objective is to reduce
11:55customs rights on both sides of the Atlantic,
11:57while allowing more investment
11:59to strengthen the entire value chain
12:01for industry, employment
12:03and innovation.
12:05According to the president of the European Commission,
12:07the agreement will allow
12:09European Union companies
12:11to save 4 billion euros
12:13of export rights per year.
12:19Allow me to address
12:21my European compatriots.
12:23This agreement is a victory
12:25for Europe.
12:2760,000 companies export today
12:29to the Mercosur,
12:31including 30,000 small and medium-sized companies.
12:33They will benefit from reduced customs rights,
12:35simpler procedures
12:37and preferential annexation.
12:39This will create enormous
12:41commercial opportunities.
12:43And for our farmers,
12:45we have heard your concerns
12:47and we are acting on them.
13:17An agreement of this type
13:19is not a solution.
13:21There is no magic solution.
13:23It is an opportunity,
13:25and it will be up to each of us
13:27to decide
13:29what speed we will give to this agreement.
13:31It is very important
13:33that the steps are small,
13:35but sure,
13:37small, but certain,
13:39and in the same direction.
13:41Countries or the European Union
13:43as such,
13:45for this to move forward.

15:43And in Senegal, the 20th anniversary of the Pan-African Parliament is from 5 to 8 December in Dakar.
15:49Consultations with the media, the diaspora and civil society have been initiated on the occasion,
15:55under the theme of favoring Pan-African synergies for reparations and justice.
16:01Ouseinou Ndiang and Shir Ndawu give us the report.
16:06The Pan-African Parliament has initiated consultations to claim justice and dignity for African peoples.
16:13This initiative reflects a desire to restore history, mutual respect and equity for African peoples.
16:21This meeting aims to draw a future based on justice, unity and values of African solidarity.
16:28On this occasion, the process of reparative justice and inequalities are at the heart of the debate.
16:35Africa is the solution of the world now.
16:38We are the key to sustainable development in the world.
16:43Because we have our resources, we are at the level of the population.
16:49The youngest population in the world is at the level of Africa.
16:54And we know that we are going to start a new way of history, of colonization.
17:02We are not here to do forced labor.
17:06But now it is to get the youth out, to go to work, to guarantee social protection.
17:15Hence the commitment of the Pan-African civil society to protect local communities.
17:20The goal is to guarantee social justice and repair the wounds of the past.
17:25So that the Parliaments take more and more care of the populations, especially young people and women.
17:31I have the impression that it is a Parliament of old people sometimes.
17:35It is good that we are old people because we are not part of society.
17:38But they represent more than 5% of the African population.
17:41While young people represent more than 70%.
17:43The commitment of the media to promote lessons from the past,
17:46sensitization and strengthening of Pan-African institutions has been saluted by some actors.
17:54We are the relay between the Pan-African people and the African people.
18:05We are going to relay the information from this training session,
18:12the topics addressed, the recommendations that will come out of this session.
18:19We will be the relay to first sensitize, then inform and even educate.
18:27A Pan-African Parliament at the service of populations and challenges of lessons from the past,
18:32such are the levers for a prosperous and just Africa.
18:38And still in Senegal, the fourth edition of Made in Senegal is open in Dakar.
18:43Valuing our local products and building national champions.
18:47This is the theme of this edition, which is devoted to promotion, creativity and Senegalese innovation.
18:53Oussé Ndieng and Moussa Ndier have taken part in it.
18:57This Made in Senegal show is a mirror to reaffirm local entrepreneurship and development.
19:03It is also an appointment of Senegalese know-how and creativity.
19:08The Made in Senegal is a showcase of local actors and the diversity of Senegalese products.
19:20This year, the theme is to value our local products and build champions.
19:25What we are looking for is to boost the Senegalese private sector.
19:29We know that the informal sector is very strong here in Senegal and it is always good to support them.
19:35And we, as an event and communication structure, our first role is to provide them with visibility.
19:43Authorities, companies and technical and institutional partners have praised the dynamism and innovation of local artists.
19:52The Made in Senegal is much more than a label, it is a simple label.
19:57It is the embodiment of our history, our diverse cultural existence and our prosperous future thanks to the talent of Senegalese.
20:07This show offers an exceptional platform to promote exchanges, strengthen partnerships and promote our products.
20:17Promoting the Made in Senegal is a noble work.
20:21We have many excellent Senegalese in their fields who may have trouble promoting their products.
20:30With more than 100 exhibitors expected this year, this show aims to encourage full-time work in Senegal and to further boost the local economy.
20:40We can only think of Made in Senegal, because there is everything in Made in Senegal.
20:46As much in the building, as much in the interior decoration, as much in the clothing as in the consumption.
20:54We have everything and good quality in Made in Senegal.
20:57We came to the 4th Made in Senegal show because we are Senegalese.
21:01We are Senegalese. We have to promote local products, Senegalese products.
21:07We have coconut based milk, coconut based bisap, coconut mint.
21:13We also have ginger coconut.
21:15It's a snack and it's very good for your health.
21:19A developed, just and prosperous Senegal to ensure a sustainable endogenous development,
21:26such is the credo of the 4th edition of the Made in Senegal show.
21:33The season of the harvest of olives is suspended in Tunisia.
21:37A decision far from unanimous among farmers,
21:41which calls for the state to reorient the current subsidies dedicated to vegetable oil to olive oil.
21:47From Tunisia, Najwa Bechat for more details.
21:51We are in the province of Kairouan, 150 km southwest of Tunisia.
21:58A region famous for the reprehensible quality of its olive oil.
22:02We met the farmer Fraj El Hadidi, owner of 5 hectares of olive trees,
22:08part of the Amor Bou Hajla delegation.
22:12El Hadidi spoke with regret and bitterness about the difficulties he faced.
22:19During the high school season in progress.
22:24We started to harvest olives, but with the drop in price of olives,
22:28the oil companies did not accept to buy the harvest.
22:31So we decided to stop the harvest.
22:34The high school season was lost this year due to the lack of sales and lack of solutions.
22:40The state must therefore act and provide solutions as soon as possible.
22:46In the south of Tunisia, many other farmers have decided to stop their olive harvesting operations.
22:53Others have protested to express their anger at the drop in prices this year.
22:59And finally, olive harvesting has stopped throughout the Tunisian territory.
23:06I am from the Shrard delegation. Prices here are very low.
23:10We have therefore decided this year to abandon this olive tree, to abandon our source of subsistence.
23:17We are obliged to do so.
23:20Faced with this situation, President Khesse Saïd has hired the National Oil Office
23:25to intervene and recover the production of olive oil.
23:28The latter has so far been unable to fulfill the presidential will.
23:34Experts in agricultural policy say that they do not have the means to carry out this mission,
23:40either in terms of storage or in terms of the financial sector,
23:44thus creating a void in the last link of the production chain of olive oil.
23:49This has prompted the government to take other measures,
23:53by announcing the opening of the market to private exporters for the export of olive oil.
24:01A decision that comes into force as early as January 2025.
24:08This is an important and vital sector in Tunisia,
24:11because it constitutes a strong source of currency for the country.
24:14Last year, 5,400 billion in currency was introduced into the state budget.
24:21This year, we have been surprised by the sharp drop in prices,
24:25which has affected the season at school as a whole.
24:29The issue is crucial, not only for the producers, but for the Tunisian economy as a whole.
24:35The press and the school sector need a long-term vision,
24:41as confirmed by agricultural policy experts.
24:47In Morocco, the curtains are closing today on the 21st edition of the International Film Festival in Marrakech.
24:54Placed under the patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI,
24:57this edition has been marked by the selection of 71 films from 32 countries,
25:03among which 9 are presented in the first international world.
25:089 were chosen by their country to represent them in the race for the Oscars,
25:14and 12 were previously supported by the Atlas workshops.
25:19This is how this edition ends.
25:22Thank you for watching it.
25:24But of course, the information continues on Médien.
25:27Thank you for staying with us.
