The ruling issued by the Tarascon Court (France) condemning the Confédération Paysanne, a French trade union organization used in judicial harassment against the Morocco-EU agricultural agreement, is a new illustration of international support for Morocco’s territorial integrity, said Hernán Olano, Rector of Colombia’s UNICOC University.

This latest setback for the Polisario separatists also testifies to the “commitment of the European Union and the institutions of its member countries to promoting integrated economic development in the Mediterranean and protecting the agreements sealed with Morocco,” the Colombian expert told MAP.

Olano also recalled that in January 2019, the European Parliament had adopted by a large majority the agricultural agreement between Morocco and the European Union, which includes Morocco’s southern provinces, seeing it as a consecration of the recognition of the Moroccanness of the Sahara by European countries.

In his view, the Confédération Paysanne, a French trade union organization used by Morocco’s adversaries to harass the agreement, has suffered a real setback in its attempts to undermine the partnership between Rabat and Brussels.

He concluded that it was time to put an end to “the violation of the principle of Pacta Sunt Servanda and the attempts to sabotage the agreements between Morocco and the European Union, given the importance of investment and economic development in the Mediterranean region for the benefit of people on both shores, which the Confédération Paysanne sought to sabotage in the courts.”
