Comment: Doubts remain over Morocco – FT.com.
Financial Times columnist Roula Khalaf writes that doubts remain about true Moroccan reform. The determining factor will be King Mohammed VI’s true motivations. He writes:

The king was never about to simply hand over all his powers to parliament. But are constitutional changes designed to begin a genuine process that can be built on, or simply to deflect current pressure?
