My comments as to this person’s Nordic or Mediterranean origins were made in response to a quip made by the President – it was a quip in itself. The Commissioner for Agriculture, Rural Development and Fisheries acts on behalf of all of the European Union, irrespective of whether he comes from the north, south, east or west.
I can simply remind you how negotiations developed on the subject of fisheries. Commissioner Fischler held several meetings with the highest authorities in Morocco. Two technical meetings took place in Rabat on 25 July 2000 and in Brussels on 27 and 28 September 1999. During these technical meetings, the Community delegation, headed by Director General Smith, put forward several initiatives that it envisaged as part of a new Fisheries Agreement with Morocco to aid the development of the Moroccan fisheries sector.
It also tried to set out a calendar for negotiations. On this occasion, it must be said that Morocco did not respond to the offer made by the Community. The impression that the negotiations had collapsed, which affected all of us, led Commissioner Fischler to call for another meeting with Prime Minister Youssoufi, to take place on 16 October 2000, where he met King Mohammed VI, Prime Minister Youssoufi and the new Minister for Fisheries, Mr Chbaatores. These meetings seem to have revived the negotiation process and led to another meeting with a Moroccan delegation on 30 October 2000, therefore very recently. This is why I think we must set a limit and not be overly optimistic, but neither do we have any reason to be unreasonably pessimistic."@en1
