A video posted on YouTube shows Abdelilah Benkirane, the Head of Government, speaking in English at a meeting with a foreign delegation.
The video shows Benkirane struggling to express himself in English, while Saadeddine Othmani, former Minister of Foreign Affairs, was smiling.
The Head of Government previously highlighted the importance of English language in many occasions, calling on the need to give it priority in education.
To overcome his limited spoken languages (mainly Arabic and French), Benkirane recently hired a private tutor to teach him English.
