صحافة بلادي — The appearance of images of Jemaa El Fna Square in Marrakesh in a promotional video attributed to the Algerian Ministry of National Defence, reviewing what the clip described as Algeria’s achievements, raised questions about the use of images from Moroccan heritage in content dedicated to promoting Algerian activities, according to what the circulating clip showed.
Jemaa El Fna Square is considered one of the most prominent cultural and tourist attractions in Morocco. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has included it among the intangible cultural heritage of humanity, in recognition of its historical value and its role in preserving the arts of oral spectacle and Moroccan popular traditions.
This appearance brings back to the forefront the debate about the necessity of scrutinizing the sources of images and clips used in official materials, especially when it comes to cultural heritage and civilizational symbols associated with the identity of countries. It was not possible, based on the available data, to verify the circumstances of the use of the image or to know whether the relevant ministry had provided an explanation regarding it.
Jemaa El Fna Square remains one of the most prominent symbols of Moroccan cultural identity, with the oral and artistic heritage it contains, popular traditions passed down through generations, and the cultural radiance it represents that transcends the borders of the Kingdom.
