    Tribune initialement publiée sur Quid.ma La résolution adoptée par le Parlement européen, le 10 juin 2021, fera certainement date dans l’histoire contemporaine des relations Maroco-espagnoles et, par ricochet, des relations avec l‘Union européenne.

The explanation, he said, could be that “China is sending a previously invisible armada of industrial boats to illegally fish in North Korean waters, forcing out smaller North Korea boats and ...
