    La situation géopolitique prévalant actuellement dans le pourtour méditerranéen est difficile et complexe, en raison notamment, de l’apparition d’une nouvelle équation stratégique qui laisse craindre une nouvelle flambée de violence. Dans ce contexte perturbé, le Maroc, sous le leadership de SM le Roi Mohammed VI, s’est engagé dans un processus démocratique, fondé sur une approche inclusive qu’il mène avec foi et détermination.

    La fin des stratégies d’intégration verticale constitue le corollaire naturel de la baisse durable du prix de la quasi-totalité des produits de base observée depuis de nombreux mois. S’il apparait encore prématuré d’affirmer avec précision quelles seront les conséquences de cette déconsolidation dans la chaine de valeur des matières premières, il est cependant probable que le rôle stratégique du négoce physique se renforce.

    Trade negotiators rarely get to celebrate a victory. The United States, for example, has been negotiating over 15 bilateral free trade agreements, with none concluded since the Korea-US agreement was finalized at the end of 2010.
