Morocco in turmoil: Mohammed VI under influence of Zaïter brothers, a threat to country’ stability
BY: Hana Saada
ALGIERS- Morocco is currently facing a significant political and social crisis, which has brought to light a concerning relationship between King Mohammed VI and the Zaïter brothers. According to the Czech newspaper idnes.cz, the German-Moroccan wrestlers have managed to privatize the king, causing growing concern within the country.
The Zaïter brothers, particularly Abu Bakr, have succeeded in establishing close ties with King Mohammed VI, to the extent that they have considerable influence over him. Despite their troubling criminal record, the Zaïter brothers have managed to rise in Moroccan power circles, raising doubts about the king’s ability to rule independently and make informed decisions for the benefit of the country. The privatization of the king by the Zaïter brothers has sparked concerns about the effective governance of Morocco and the preservation of the interests of the Moroccan people.
The Zaïter brothers’ success in gaining the confidence and influence of Mohammed VI can be attributed to their achievements in the world of boxing. However, their rapid ascent has raised questions about the motivations behind this close relationship. Their involvement in political affairs and decision-making on behalf of the king have cast doubt on the transparency and integrity of Moroccan governance.
The purported privatization of King Mohammed VI by the Zaïter brothers has sent shockwaves throughout Morocco, casting doubt on the country’ stability. As one of the wealthiest monarchs in the world, the king has reportedly ceded a significant portion of his responsibilities and authority to the Zaïter brothers. This development raises concerns about equitable governance and informed decision-making.
Moreover, the misuse of public resources by the Zaïter brothers has incited public outrage and dissatisfaction among the Moroccan populace. Reports of the brothers’ use of luxury vehicles and state aircraft for personal gain have called into question the integrity and accountability of Moroccan leaders. This situation exacerbates social disparities and reinforces the sense of disillusionment among ordinary citizens who struggle to meet their basic needs.
Challenges for the future of Morocco
The challenges facing the future of Morocco are of paramount importance, particularly in light of the current crisis that has gripped the country. The apparent influence of the Zaïter brothers over Mohammed VI has raised crucial questions about the stability of the nation. The weakened governance of the king has compromised the confidence of the Moroccan people in their leaders, thereby threatening political and social stability.
