In its report released on Monday, the World Bank reviewed its outlook for Morocco. Due to the pandemic and drought, the institution expects the country’s real GDP to contract by 6.3% in 2020 and extreme poverty to increase slightly.
«The epidemiological situation in Morocco is worrying and the number of cases is increasing over the weeks», the head of government admitted on Monday, saying that his cabinet «has no visibility» as to the evolution of this situation.
