Political parties question Morocco's role in 2030 World Cup
The Livre party in Portugal and the Sumar party in Spain have called for a review of Morocco's participation in hosting the 2030 World Cup following recent migration tensions in Ceuta. Meanwhile, reports from The Times alleging that FIFA President Gianni Infantino promised the tournament final to Morocco in exchange for re-election support have been denied by FIFA. Spanish Minister of Education, Vocational Training and Sport Milagros Tolón has publicly defended Spain's candidacy to host the final, citing the country's infrastructure and security.
- Leader: Rui Tavares
- Ideology: Green left-wing politics, libertarian socialism
LIVRE (meaning "Free") is a green left-wing party founded in 2014 by historian and former MEP Rui Tavares. The party struggled for years before finally electing Tavares as its first MP in 2022, then grew to 4 seats in 2024 and 6 seats in 2025—making it the only progressive party to gain ground in recent elections. LIVRE focuses on environmental protection, human rights, and progressive social policies while maintaining a pro-European stance.
