2024, at the Royal Palace in Rabat, a Council of Ministers, according to a statement from the Spokesperson of the Royal Palace.<\/p>\n<p>At the outset of the Council\u2019s session, Mr. Fouzi Lekjaa, Minister Delegate to the Minister of Economy and Finance in charge of the Budget and Chairman of the 2030 World Cup Committee, delivered a presentation before His Majesty the King on the progress of the Kingdom\u2019s preparations to host this international sporting event.<\/p>\n<p>The Minister provided an overview of the various stages achieved in Morocco\u2019s bid, tracing its progress since His Majesty the King announced on March 14, 2023, in Kigali, the joint candidacy with Spain and Portugal to host the 2030 World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>The Minister also highlighted the Sovereign\u2019s announcement to the Moroccan people on October 4, 2023, regarding FIFA\u2019s Council\u2019s unanimous decision to select the Morocco-Spain-Portugal bid as the sole candidacy, which sparked an extraordinary mobilization to prepare a bid dossier fully aligned with FIFA\u2019s specifications and requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The Minister added that this tripartite bid submitted to FIFA on July 29, 2024 is the fruit of a strong and unprecedented mobilization by the working groups created for this purpose, in particular at the level of ministerial departments, public institutions, companies and local authorities concerned.<\/p>\n<p>FIFA\u2019s evaluation report on the bid, published on November 29, 2024, awarded an outstanding score, far exceeding the stipulated requirements.<\/p>\n<p>This remarkable achievement sets the stage, God willing, for the Morocco-Spain-Portugal bid to be officially awarded the hosting rights for the 2030 World Cup during the upcoming extraordinary FIFA Council Congress.<\/p>\n<p>To rise to the challenge of an organization that lives up to the aspirations of His Majesty the King, the Minister announced that, in accordance with the High Royal Directives, an expanded committee will be established, which includes representatives from civil society, Moroccan expatriates, and African talents.<\/p>\n<p>The mobilization will be further reinforced through coordinated efforts with all stakeholders to expedite the execution of strategic and structuring projects relating to hosting this global event, in particular:<br \/>\u2013 Upgrading stadiums;<br \/>\u2013 Expanding and renovating airports in the six host cities;<br \/>\u2013 Enhancing road infrastructure and densifying intra-urban networks;<br \/>\u2013 Launching an integrated territorial upgrading program that extends beyond the host cities of the World Cup games;<br \/>\u2013 Developing hotel and commercial infrastructure;<br \/>\u2013 Strengthening and modernizing medical services;<br \/>\u2013 Developing and modernizing telecommunications networks;<br \/>\u2013 Launching a comprehensive training program to strengthen the skills of young people.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of his address, the Minister said that the 2030 World Cup will not only be a sporting event, but also a unique opportunity to accelerate the growth momentum of the national economy over the next few years, create more job opportunities, boost the country\u2019s tourist appeal and promote the universal values of peace, unity and sustainable development.<\/p>\n<p>The Council of Ministers also approved six international conventions, of which four are bilateral and two are multilateral, aimed at strengthening cooperation and partnership ties between Morocco and several friendly and brotherly countries, as well as reinforcing its continental and international positioning.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, on the proposal of the Head of Government and the Minister of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development, His Majesty King Mohammed VI appointed Zouhair Chorfi as Chairman of the National Electricity Regulatory Authority.<\/p>\n<p>The King directed a comprehensive reform of the authority, expanding its scope to include all energy sector components, such as natural gas, hydrogen, production, storage, transport, and distribution, in line with international best practices.<\/p>\n<p>Source
