"Due to its privileged location in North Africa, the Kingdom of Morocco has a vast exclusive sea area, which has been coveted throughout history by various fishing fleets, including European ones. The near continuity of our territories motivated the establishment of privileged economic relations between the European Union and the Kingdom of Morocco, which became the greatest beneficiary of EU funds under the European Neighbourhood Policy, while Europe became the primary destination for its exports. Sadly, Parliament has just prevented an extension of the Partnership Agreement with Morocco. However, we cannot continue for much longer without a new agreement, otherwise the European fishing fleets that operate in Moroccan waters will go bankrupt and support for Moroccan development will be cancelled. Accordingly, I advocate moving forward with new negotiations to establish a new agreement between the EU and Morocco. I therefore urge the Commission to prepare a new economically, environmentally and socially sustainable agreement with Morocco as soon as possible in order for support to continue to the Moroccan population, which is so dependent on this support, and so that the fishing fleets licensed to fish in that region can resume their operations."@en1
