lpv:translated text	"This agreement between Morocco and the EU is questionable in many respects. I can only regret the fact that we have to vote on it when the impact assessment has not yet been published. Nevertheless, as we needed to take a decision, I chose to vote in favour. This is not a vote against French, Greek, Italian or Spanish producers; it is a vote for Moroccans and for consistency in the development policy that we are trying to conduct. While the Arab Spring has completely changed the game in southern Mediterranean countries, it is our duty today to support Morocco’s development. Of course, this agreement is far from perfect; free trade agreements as such pose numerous problems. However, Morocco is our neighbour and we cannot advocate the economic and democratic development of these countries if we completely refuse them entry into our markets."@en1
