Responding to oral questions in the House of Advisors, Miraoui said that as part of exploring possible solutions to remedy the situation of these students, the Ministry has held extensive meetings with the network of deans of faculties of medicine, pharmacy and dentistry in the public and private sectors, as well as with the Hassan II Agronomic and Veterinary Institute.

He added that contacts have also been made with the diplomatic corps of some Eastern European countries that have an educational system similar to that of Ukraine (Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria) to examine the possibilities of hosting Moroccan students in their institutions of higher education.

The Minister stressed that the problem concerns mainly dentistry and pharmacy, knowing that the number of students returning from Ukraine exceeds the capacity of the national faculties concerned, explaining that this problem arises with less acuteness for faculties of medicine, engineering institutes, faculties and schools of economics and management.

He stressed that all solutions are being studied according to developments in the issue, including the possibility for students to continue their studies at a distance, as indicated in the circular made public by the Ministry of Higher Education

The Ministry will review this proposal with medical and pharmacy schools, dental schools and hospitals, he added.

Regarding the proposal of the Hungarian embassy, the minister mentioned that it concerns the possibility of hosting about 1,000 Moroccan students to allow them to complete their studies in that country, adding that students wishing to enroll in higher education institutions in Romania and Hungary will be able to take the entrance exams from Morocco without having to travel to these two countries.

The Minister stressed that the government has given high priority to this issue in order to protect the interests of Moroccan students in Ukraine and find appropriate solutions to their situation, noting in this regard the creation of a digital platform to inventory data related to the academic level of these students and their specializations.
