Jamal Assri, secretary-general of Morocco’s Unified Socialist Party, challenges Fatima Zahra Mansouri’s appointment as head of the Moroccan government. He says the appointment reflects the political context in which the Authenticity and Modernity Party was created, according to remarks he made at a press conference.
Jamal Assri, secretary-general of Morocco’s Unified Socialist Party (PSU), challenged on Wednesday the appointment of Fatima Zahra Mansouri, a member of the Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM), as head of government. He said the appointment should be viewed in the context of the PAM’s creation and the objectives assigned to it, speaking at a press conference held by the Left Alliance in Casablanca after the legislative elections of 23 September 2026.
Assri said the PAM had emerged, in his view, from an intervention by the authorities aimed at reshaping the political landscape and regulating the party system. He also linked this analysis to the democratic forces’ rejection of the project and referred to the 20 February movement in this context.
