Your Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen In keeping with this perspective - that of realism, anticipation and action - I should like to mention the strategy the Kingdom of Morocco has been implementing for more than half a century. Let us begin with water, the source if life and a crucial, daily concern of Moroccans. What would have become of morocco in this respect, had it not been for the dam-building policy, which is a ground-breaking, far-sighted policy initiated in the early 1960s by my revered father, His Late Majesty King Hassan II. May he rest in peace. recognising the importance of this key accomplishment for Morocco´s future, I have sought to reinforce it, and as a result Morocco now has 140 large dams, nearly a third of which have been built during the last 15 years. Thanks o the policy, Morocco is dealing successfully with the effects of drought whereas, in some developed countries, a mere delay in seasonal rainfall gives rise to a warning that an exceptional, severe drought is feared. The kingdom´s committed action in this respect is also illustrated by the development if watersheds which make it possible to channel water without destroying or disrupting ecosystems. Morocco has also developed a responsible fisheries policy, which it defend-albeit with some difficulty-when negotiating with its partners, to protect its fish stocks.“His Majesty the King of Morocco, Mohammed VI, said as addressing the UN parties audience at COP21 opening session..
