Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining our Press Briefing on the Economic Outlook for the Middle East and Central Asia, and many thanks to many of you who have come to Marrakech to cover our Annual Meetings. We are going to start with opening remarks from Jihad Azour, Director of the Middle East and Central Asia Department, and then we will take your questions. We do have interpretations into Arabic and French, and you can ask your questions in those languages. Thank you. Jihad, if you will.
