00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Mediantv for your press briefing.
00:14Morocco is positioned as the first African supplier of Spain and its main client on
00:20the continent, according to the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Trade and Enterprise, reports
00:25Le Maroc today.
00:26This privileged relationship is based on a constant progression of exchanges, confirming
00:31Morocco's strategic role in Spanish-African trade relations, underlines the same source
00:36taken up by the Moroccan daily.
00:38Likewise, Spain remains Morocco's first trading partner within the European Union,
00:44ahead of France and Germany in terms of import and export, according to the data
00:48of the Spanish Ministry provided on the map.
00:50This dynamic illustrates the solidity of economic ties between the two countries and the growing
00:56growth of Morocco in foreign trade with Spain, continues the national newspaper.
01:00The importance of this cooperation is also translated by significant investments,
01:05adds the same source, specifying that Spanish companies have injected a total of 1.9 billion
01:11euros in various strategic sectors of Morocco, generating more than 27,000 jobs,
01:16specifies Le Maroc today.
01:18Germany, to pursue this world tour, and the Bundestag, validates a plan of massive investment
01:25to rearm the country, according to the Frankfurter Zeitung, a package of several hundred billion
01:31dollars in euros allocated to defense and economy was approved yesterday by 513 deputies,
01:36the majority of the two-thirds of the elected representatives present.
01:39The text is a revolution for Germany, champion of budgetary orthodoxy, which has long neglected
01:46military spending in favor of the U.S. umbrella that has protected it since the end of World War II.
01:51But Berlin has decided to change course after Washington has indicated that it wants to
01:55turn away from Europe and get closer to Russia.
01:58Concretely, Germany is going to soften its loan brake, which limits the country's ability
02:03to borrow for military spending and for the regions.
02:06Tuesday's vote sends a positive signal, both inside and outside, analyzes the Frankfurter Zeitung.
02:13Germany is finally mobilizing all its forces and resources to face the long-known threats.
02:18But will the future chancellor, Friedrich Merz, have the strength to implement the reforms
02:23he promised, even before the agreement on debt, but on a daily basis?
02:30In the United States, a federal court now declares the abolition of the USAID
02:35probably unconstitutional, notes the Washington Post.
02:39The U.S. agency has probably violated the U.S. Constitution in several ways.
02:44It has considered a judge from Maryland.
02:47It has deprived the elected representatives of the people at the Congress of their constitutional authority
02:52to decide when and how an agency created by the Congress must be closed,
02:57according to the text of the decision communicated by the American newspaper Le Magistrat.
03:02Seized by 26 former or current employees of the USAID,
03:06who contested the authority of Elon Musk on this federal agency,
03:10consequently ordered the Commission to restore access to email,
03:15payment and electronic system of all staff.
03:18This is a new judicial turn for the Trump administration,
03:22while it seeks to considerably reduce the size of the federal government,
03:26notes the Washington Post.
03:30In Turkey, a new obstacle for a candidacy for the presidency,
03:35the main opponent of Erdogan, reports L'Orient Le Jour.
03:39The University of Istanbul canceled yesterday the diploma of Ekrem İmamoğlu,
03:43the mayor of the Turkish megalopolis, currently alone in Lisbon
03:47to represent his party at the 2028 presidential election.
03:50He should be officially appointed on Sunday, during a primary.
03:54This decision is considered by many as an attempt to prevent the politician
03:59from presenting himself at the scrutiny, explains the information portal.
04:03According to the Turkish constitution,
04:05a diploma of higher education is required for any candidacy
04:08according to the head of state.
04:10İmamoğlu immediately denounced an illegal decision
04:13and announced his intention to contest it in court.
04:16The 53-year-old had obtained in 1995 a business management license
04:21delivered by a university in northern Cyprus,
04:24before being recognized in Istanbul.
04:26The Board of Directors of the University of Istanbul
04:29has also judged, on Tuesday, irregularly,
04:32the recognition of his diploma in Turkey,
04:34and specifies L'Orient Le Jour.
04:38This is the end of this press release.
