By increasing travel to Western Sahara and supporting the Moroccan state’s autonomy plan, can the MR benefit? In short: attract new voters?
We asked this question to political scientist Pascal Delwit and sociologist Andrea Rea, both professors at ULB. “If the MR wants to increase its electorate in Brussels, it has an interest in capturing more Belgian-Moroccan voters.” underlines Andre Rea, specialist in Moroccan immigration. He pursues : “This electorate escapes him on socio-economic issues, on the theme of convictional signs and on the wearing of the veil. Trying to promote Moroccan nationalism, particularly on the issue of Western Sahara, is perhaps a way of attracting the good graces of the Belgian-Moroccan population. Without knowing if it is a calculation that will work “It remains to inform the Belgian-Moroccans of these positions…”A lot are very attentive to the declarations of Belgian political representatives on Morocco“, analyse Pascal Delwit. “The information can come from the embassy or from associations subsidized by the Moroccan public authorities, from the Moroccan press and obviously from social networks.“.
