“The issue of attribution of portfolios would be revealed within one or two days. By then, the PJD has decided on his candidates for the next government team,” Benkirane told the press shortly before a meeting in Rabat on a committee to propose the Justice and Development Party’s candidates to the new cabinet.
He believed that “things are more clear” for the other three parties of the coalition, namely the Istiqlal Party, the Popular Movement and the Progress and Socialism Party, whether for the portfolios or for names eligible for the next executive.
The prime minister-designate on the other hand announced that the composition of the new cabinet will be known in the “coming days”.
“The announcement of the new government is expected soon,” he said.
