Moroccan Truckers Strike Over Soaring Diesel Prices, Demand Regulatory Action

The strike notice was filed by the National Federation of Multimodal Transport (FNTM), calling on transporters to demonstrate against the rise in the price of diesel and the satisfaction of their demands.

Among other demands, they are calling for the acceleration of the legal and regulatory framework for the diesel index in order to control price fluctuations and adopt indexation.

This is in addition to the recovery of a portion of the domestic consumption tax (TIC), the updating of the reference cost for the carrier and the search for solutions for companies that are unable to repay their loan and leasing maturities.

It should be noted that the aid system for transporters set up by the government is starting this month. Professionals will be able to benefit from this support according to the categories.
