The Kingdom of Morocco firmly stated that it is “in no way concerned” by the European Union Court of Justice’s (ECJ) ruling on agricultural and fisheries agreements.
This is according to a press release from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Moroccan Expatriates.
The Ministry emphasized that Morocco was not involved in any part of the legal proceedings.
“Morocco is not a party to this case, which concerns the European Union on the one hand, and the Algeria-backed ‘Polisario’ on the other.
"Morocco did not take part in any of the procedural phases and, consequently, does not consider itself in any way concerned by the decision,” the Ministry declared.
The Ministry also criticised the ruling, noting “obvious legal errors and suspicious errors of fact,” suggesting “total ignorance” of the case’s realities or potential political bias.
Furthermore, the Ministry highlighted that “the Court has even allowed itself to take the place of the competent UN bodies,” contradicting their established positions.
Morocco called on the EU Council, European Commission, and member states to respect international commitments and protect the integrity of their strategic partnership with the Kingdom.
The Ministry reiterated Morocco’s stance: it will not subscribe to any agreement that does not respect its territorial integrity and national unity.
