In his Throne Day address marking 26 years on the throne, King Mohammed VI reaffirmed the symbolic and political significance of the occasion as a moment to renew the mutual bond of allegiance between the monarchy and the Moroccan people, while also taking stock of the country’s progress and achievements.
The monarch emphasized his commitment to building a more competitive and diversified economy within a stable macroeconomic framework.
“Despite consecutive years of drought, the national economy has maintained a steady and significant growth rate in recent years,” he said, noting positive momentum particularly in the industrial sector.
King Mohammed VI also highlighted Morocco’s emergence as a rising economic power with a broad and diverse set of international partners.
He cited the planned extension of the high-speed rail line between Kenitra and Marrakech as a key infrastructure milestone reflecting this evolution.
However, the king underscored that economic growth alone is not enough. “I will not be satisfied unless this development translates into improved living conditions for citizens across all regions,” he declared.
He stressed the importance of human development and the need to provide direct support to families in need.
Acknowledging that some areas still suffer from poverty and social vulnerability, the king called for greater spatial justice and inclusivity.
“There is no place today or in the future for a Morocco that moves at two speeds,” he said, affirming a national vision grounded in solidarity and balanced progress.
