  • Communiqué De Presse
    COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE Sa Majesté le Roi Mohammed VI, que Dieu l'assiste, a présidé, le mardi 4 décembre 2012 à la commune rurale de IAZZANENE, province de Nador, la cérémonie de présentation du projet du port énergétique et divers du complexe portuaire Nador West Med et de signature des conventions relatives à la réalisation du projet. A cette occasion, le Ministre de l’Equipement et du Transport, Monsieur Aziz RABBAH, a présenté devant le Souverain les grandes lignes de la stratégie portuaire nationale à l’horizon 2030 avec un Focus sur le projet du complexe portuaire Nador West Med. Cette stratégie qui permettra de disposer de ports performants, catalyseurs de la compétitivité de l’économie nationale, moteurs du développement régional du territoire et acteurs incontournables dans le positionnement du Maroc comme plateforme logistique du bassin méditerranéen, a conduit à définir six pôles portuaires, chacun ayant une vocation bien définie : Le pôle de l’Oriental, tourné vers l’Europe et la Méditerranée et notamment le Maghreb. Le pôle du Nord-Ouest, porte du Détroit, avec Tanger. Le pôle de Kénitra-Casablanca qui regroupe notamment les deux ports de Mohammedia et de Casablanca. Le pôle Abda – Doukkala, centre de l’industrie lourde, avec El Jorf Lasfar et Safi. Le pôle du Souss – Tensift, avec le complexe portuaire d’Agadir. Et enfin, le pôle des Ports du Sud, regroupant les trois ports de Tan-Tan, Laâyoune et Dakhla. Le coût de l’investissement en infrastructures portuaires sur la période 2012-2030 est estimé à 60 milliards de dirhams dont le financement est prévu être réalisé par l’Etat, les agences portuaires et les opérateurs du secteur dans le cadre de concessions et/ou de partenariats publics privés.

Dans une récente étude, l’IMRI fixe les priorités de la diplomatie marocaine pour mieux se positionner sur l'échiquier international. C‘est le moment ou jamais pour le Maroc de diversifier sa politique étrangère. Ce constat est celui de l'institut marocain des relations internationales (IMRI) qui vient de rendre publique une étude sur les priorités géopolitiques du Maroc.
