A country's areas of strategic interest are defined by its values, principles, and expectations. In this context, unprecedented opportunities are emerging for two key Atlantic States—Brazil and Morocco—to forge a mutually beneficial partnership. This premise underscores the deep-rooted social and geohistorical connections between both sides of the Atlantic.

La partie américaine du bassin Atlantique pose d’ailleurs un sérieux problème aux pays de l’OPEP+, une coalitio ...
