Morocco's Equity and Reconciliation Commission - Update


The Moroccan government must be very happy with both the political and media coverage that has followed the release of Morocco's Equity and Reconciliation Commission report.

Overwhelmingly it has been positive. While nobody claims there is still not a lot of work to be done, the steps taken by Morocco have set it on a path that few other Islamic states have embarked.

The latest article on the Commission comes from Georgie Anne Geyer who has a fine reputation for her opinion pieces on foreign affairs issues.

Her piece is worth reading. You will find it here: MOROCCO'S TRANSITION A MODEL FOR MIDDLE EAST AND BEYOND
