5G and “Stargate” effect. Morocco Telecom Loan End

5G is therefore essential, especially since the launch of “Stargate” in the United States by Trump, focused in particular on the development of AI, will revolutionize the web 5.0. To do this, the freshly invested American president has promised investments of “at least $ 500 billion”.

Even before this announcement, Europe had already decided to go directly to 6G to Dame the pawn to China. Consequently, Africa is forced to follow the cadence, otherwise this continent will rush into a new digital gap.

In Morocco, operators all claim to be ready for the development of 5G, starting with the historic operator whose capital is 22% owned by the State. For this reason, Morocco Telecom could serve as a locomotive for a rapid deployment of 5G not only in the kingdom where the first offers could be launched this year, but in various sub -Saharan African countries.

The 45.4 billion dirhams invested by Morocco Telecom in its African subsidiaries, between 2006 and 2023, as its financial statements show, show that the group has been able to take up the challenge of optical fiber. Especially with the deployment of the “transafrican” terrestrial cable over 5,700 kilometers, which extends from Morocco to Niger, via Mauritania, Mali and Burkina Faso. Maroc Telecom also links West Africa to Europe via Morocco over 9,400 km.

This is what allows all countries of presence of Morocco Telecom today to escape the vagaries of shared international connections. This is what also allowed various countries to take the high-speed connection train at the right time, an essential element for socio-economic development. These are all signals showing that Maroc Telecom will indeed be at the rendezvous of 5G.
