摩洛哥国王任命首位女性首相

摩洛哥国王穆罕默德六世任命法蒂玛·扎赫拉·曼苏里为首相，她由此成为摩洛哥历史上首位女性首相1。曼苏里现年50岁，是真实性与现代性党的成员1，该党在上周议会选举中获得397个席位中的97个，领先第二名31个座位1。她已获得授权组建新政府1。

曼苏里面临多项紧迫议题，包括应对通胀压力、提高工资和创造就业机会等民众关切问题1。此外，她还需要监督与2030年世界杯相关的数十亿美元投资，摩洛哥将与其他国家共同举办这一赛事1。曼苏里曾任马拉喀什首位女性市长，2009年当选，任职6年后于2021年再次任职1。她是阿拉伯世界第二位女性首相，仅次于2021至2023年间任职的突尼斯总理纳吉拉·布登1。

King Mohammed VI of Morocco has appointed Fatima Zahra Mansouri as the country's first female prime minister.1 Mansouri, who is 50 years old and has been a member of the Authenticity and Modernity Party since 2008, has been tasked with forming a new government.1 Her party secured 97 seats in the recent parliamentary elections out of 395 total seats, placing it ahead of the second-place party by 31 seats.1

As prime minister, Mansouri will need to address pressing public concerns including inflation, wage increases, and job creation.1 She will also oversee billions of dollars in investments related to Morocco's role as co-host of the 2030 FIFA World Cup.1 Mansouri's appointment is historically significant within the Arab world—she becomes only the second woman to hold the position of prime minister in an Arab nation, following Najla Bouden, who served as Tunisia's prime minister from 2021 to 2023.1 Prior to this appointment, Mansouri served as Marrakech's first female mayor, having been elected in 2009 and serving a six-year term before returning to the position in 2021.1
