Abstract

The programme deals with the visit of the minister in charge of the Moroccan community abroad in Bordeaux. In this city, the court of military pensions issues pensions to Moroccan veterans who took part in the second World War, as part of the French army. The Minister had meetings with this category of immigrants and with French officials about the problems they face. The French government requires them to reside permanently in Bordeaux to qualify for a pension which is far below that of French veterans.
