Morocco Appoints Fatima El Mansouri as First Woman Prime Minister After Elections
Morocco's King Mohammed VI appointed Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri as the country's first woman prime minister following her Authenticity and Modernity Party's (PAM) victory in the September 2026 parliamentary elections. Mansouri, a 50-year-old lawyer and former mayor of Marrakech, was tasked with forming a coalition government amid a fragmented parliament. Her administration is expected to focus on economic challenges such as inflation, job creation, and investments linked to the 2030 FIFA World Cup. The king retains significant powers despite the constitutional reforms requiring the prime minister to come from the largest party.
