Ousted from RMC, Mehdi Ghezzar formally denies criticism after his comments on Morocco

The axe was quick to fall on Mehdi Ghezzar, cutting the fate of the RMC columnist to the quick: he has just been ejected from his seat on Les Grandes Gueules!

Why does general opprobrium strike so brutally?Algerian entrepreneur and columnist living in France? Facing a barrage of harsh and virulent criticism in France and Morocco since his angry, unspoken remarks about the Moroccan monarchy and André Azoulay, Mohammed VI’s eminence grise, made on Al24 News, the Algerian public television channel, Mehdi Ghezzar has come out of his silence to deny the allegations. A formal denial, and yet a distressed one.

In the video below, he explains without the slightest ambiguity that he commented, certainly by vilifying it, on a policy and only on a policy, in this case that of the kingdom of the Atlas, and in no case the Moroccan people, this “brother people” who “will remain brothers”.

” My role is to comment and I have commented on a policy that is currently being implemented. In no case have I attacked the men and women who make up the Kingdom of Morocco,” towards whom he assures that he has not “no hate”.

And to add vibrantly: “ I will always be at their side, because they are a people made up of men and women like us, of the same faith, the same traditions and the same customs.”
