In a historic move, the Moroccan Progressive Movement has announced the adoption of a new flag for the Moroccan Republic. This announcement came after a meeting of the movement's executive office, where the decision was unanimously voted upon. The new flag will be raised at all activities and international events in which the Moroccan Republic participates, starting from the date of this statement.
The New Flag: A Step Towards Restoring National Identity
The new flag is considered an important step towards restoring the national identity of Morocco. This flag is temporary and will remain in place until a public referendum is held in which the Moroccan people will decide their permanent flag. The goal of this new flag is to reflect the identity, history, and culture of this great nation, free from any colonial or dictatorial influences.
Historical Background: The Current Flag and Its Colonial History
The current flag, known today as the flag of Morocco, was imposed during the period of French and Spanish occupation. This flag was not a free choice by the Moroccan people but was part of the tools of control and domination imposed by the colonial powers on Morocco. Therefore, it does not fully reflect the national aspirations or the rich cultural values of the Moroccan people.
The Need for Change: Restoring National Identity
Over time, and with Morocco's regained independence, it has become necessary to reconsider the symbols of the state, foremost among them the national flag. The flag represents the identity of the nation and should be a symbol of the pride and unity of the people. Thus, the Moroccan Progressive Movement believes that the current flag does not fulfill this noble purpose and instead reminds us of a dark period in our history when our country was under colonial control.
The Right to National Identity: Enhancing Democracy
Every nation has the right to have a flag that reflects its culture, history, and values. We, in the Moroccan Progressive Movement, believe that the flag should be a living embodiment of the aspirations of our people and the freedom for which our ancestors fought. Therefore, we call for the adoption of a new flag that expresses the identity of the Moroccan people and stems from their free will.
Next Steps: Public Referendum
This temporary flag will be raised at all activities and international events as the representative of the Moroccan Republic until the people can express their opinion in a public referendum that will determine the final flag. This referendum will be a step towards enhancing democracy and involving the people in making important decisions about their future.
Call for National Participation
We call on all Moroccan citizens to support this initiative and work together to build a new Morocco that respects its history and aspires to a better future. Adopting a new flag that reflects our national identity is an essential part of this project.
