Paris – France on Friday reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to its exceptional partnership with Morocco and its determination to further deepening it, following the rulings of the EU Court of Justice (ECJ) on the fisheries and agricultural agreements between the EU and Morocco.

The French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs stressed in a press release that the relationship between the European Union and Morocco is of strategic importance.

France, which ‘takes note’ of the three rulings handed down on Friday by the European Court of Justice, said it would continue to work with its European partners to strengthen their exchanges, particularly economic ones, and to preserve the achievements of the partnership, in compliance with international law, the same source said.

As the President of the French Republic Emmanuel Macron wrote to HM King Mohammed VI on Morocco’s Throne Day, France remains particularly determined to support Morocco’s efforts to promote the economic and social development of the Sahara
for the benefit of the local populations, the Ministry adds.
