"This fisheries agreement is a disgraceful agreement through which the EU is a party to crimes under international law.
The agreement covers Western Sahara’s fishing waters, but Morocco is occupying and oppressing Western Sahara and has no right to the country’s natural resources. Western Sahara’s legitimate representative, the liberation movement Polisario, is firmly opposed to this agreement. The Geneva Convention bans an occupying power from exploiting occupied areas’ natural resources for its own gain, but that is precisely what this agreement involves. It means that the EU too would profit from, and legitimise, Morocco’s illegal occupation of Western Sahara and thus be an active party to crimes under international law.
Commissioner, the agreement you have negotiated with Morocco is disgraceful."@en1
