Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri Appointed as Morocco's First Female Prime Minister
The Royal Palace announced that Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri has been appointed as the new prime minister of Morocco, making her the first woman to hold the position. Her Party for Authenticity and Modernism (PAM) won the most seats in recent parliamentary elections, which saw a historically low voter turnout of approximately 38 percent. The fifty-year-old former mayor of Marrakesh, who was trained as a lawyer in France, aims to address economic and social pressures facing youth by promising to restore hope. She is now tasked with forming a cabinet.
