"Moroccan society has showed a real capacity to maintain political pluralism," the US daily said citing CNDH President, Driss El Yazami.
"It is no coincidence that as Morocco's reform movement comes as U.S.-Morocco ties have expanded to cooperation in economic and security realms," the US paper noted, adding that "this is the sort of democratic progress we should be encouraging to take place in other countries...since it offers the only real hope for stability".
"If we want more allies and support in battling extremism, we should be supporting democratic reform efforts," the Washington Post said.
