The movements of the last two days have been linked to the issue of voting by Arab countries for the Canadian-Mexican file to host the World Cup in 2026 and for abandoning the Moroccan file, which was counting on greater Arab support for achieving the dream of Morocco since 1994 without achieving it for the fifth time.
The Saudi vote has left a great deal of controversy among Moroccans. Social networking sites have drawn widespread criticism of the Saudi option, recalling the historic sacrifices of the Kingdom in its relations with the Gulf states, first and foremost Morocco's participation in a war against the Houthi organizations in Yemen, So.
"Relations between states can not be based on behaviors that are derived from assessments stemming from malaise or temperament or as a result of being subjected to certain pressures," said Abdel-Fattah Naoum, a researcher specializing in international relations and political science. The vote of Saudi Arabia for the file of Morocco to run for the World Cup does not mean at all that relations will worsen between the two countries, because if we consider this an indicator, the vote of Algeria, Syria and North Korea should also be considered in favor of Morocco as an indicator of Morocco's transition to another axis of international politics.
