Further highlighting Morocco’s commitment, Bensaid emphasized that the country’s leadership in the Arab Information Ministers’ Council came at a critical time marked by significant developments in the media and communication sectors, driven by profound geopolitical upheavals in the Arab region. This period necessitated a strategic focus on reinforcing collective Arab media efforts, aiming to qualify, adapt, and elevate the effectiveness of joint Arab media initiatives.
Bensaid stressed the importance of unity and collaborative effort in strengthening Arab media actions. This includes fostering a shared understanding of the regional issues and ensuring that the media’s role is maximized to support and highlight the Palestinian cause. By enhancing the quality and impact of media coverage, Morocco aims to contribute significantly to the broader Arab effort in promoting peace, stability, and justice in the region.
In conclusion, Bensaid reiterated Morocco’s unwavering dedication to the Palestinian cause under the visionary leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI. Through sustained efforts and strategic initiatives, Morocco continues to champion the rights of the Palestinian people, supporting their quest for an independent state and improved living conditions in Al-Quds, reinforcing the deep-rooted solidarity between the Moroccan and Palestinian peoples.
