Committee: Security Council Topic: Establishment of a nuclear-weapon-free-zone in the region of the Middle East Country: Morocco Morocco, officially

the Kingdom of Morocco, is a country located in North Africa. It has a population of nearly 32 million and an area of 710,850 km, including the disputed Western Sahara which is mainly under Moroccan administration. Morocco has a coast on the Atlantic Ocean that reaches past the Strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by Spain to the north (a water border through the Strait and land borders with three small Spanish-controlled exclaves, Ceuta, Melilla, and Pen de Vlez de la Gomera), Algeria to the east, and Mauritania to the south. Morocco is a de jure constitutional monarchy with an elected parliament. The King of Morocco holds vast executive powers, including dissolving parliament at will. Executive power is exercised by the government and by the king as well. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the two chambers of parliament, the Assembly of Representatives and the Assembly of Councillors. The king can also issue decrees called dahirs which have the force of law. Parliamentary elections were held in Morocco on 7 September 2007, and were considered by some neutral observers to be mostly free and fair; although voter turnout was estimated to be 37%, the lowest in decades. The political capital is Rabat, and the largest city is Casablanca; other large cities include Zagora, Marrakesh, Fes, Sal, Agadir, Tangier, Meknes, Oujda and Tetouan. The actually King of Morocco is Mohammed VI and his Prime Minister is Abbas El Fassi Morocco was working among with the African states to get a coordinate work to make of Africa a NWFZ (Nuclear Weapon Free-Zone), but Morocco doesnt have a permanent position about the topic. Morocco has a neutral position, but in the last pass of the years Morocco has been trying to participate in the treaties that to reduce the production of mass of nuclear weapons. One of the treaties that were signed by Moroccos kingdom was the Pelindaba Treaty. This treaty its the African Nuclear Weapon Free Zone Treaty, its about prohibits the research, development, manufacture, stockpiling, acquisition, testing, possession, control or stationing of nuclear explosive devices in the territory of parties to the Treaty and the dumping of radioactive wastes in the African zone by Treaty parties. The Treaty also prohibits any attack against nuclear installations in the zone by Treaty parties and requires them to maintain the highest standards of physical protection of nuclear material, facilities and equipment, which are to be used exclusively for peaceful purposes. Also, Morocco signed the treaty in 1996 but It has not ratified. In order to prevent the production of mass of nuclear weapons in the world and the creation of the NWFZ (Nuclear Weapon Free-Zone) in the Middles East Morocco recommends:

A) Firstly, the states who doesnt have ratified such treaty about the NWFZ, start to work in the Protocol of the respective treaty. B) Discus among the Nuclear Weapon States to rich a new form for seize the technology and the nuclear energy those have to rise the progress of the world. C) And finally in order to the second point, with the nuclear weapons are in existence dismantle it and start a new project to innovate the world of the science or donate the technology to other countries which doesnt have it.
