La crise du Covid-19 a fortement entravé les négociations d'un accord de libre-échange entre le Royaume-Uni et l'Union européenne (UE). Étant condamnée à des obstacles, à la fois temporels et politiques, la perspective de parvenir à un accord avant le départ prévu du Royaume-Uni du marché unique de l'UE le 31 décembre 2020, semble de plus en plus compliquée. Londres et Bruxelles devraient considérer une sortie du Royaume- Uni sans accord comme une conclusion indésirable des négociations, qui ne ferait qu'aggraver les conséquences politiques et économiques, déjà tangibles, du Covid-19. Éliminer les risques d'un tel scénario pourrait se faire, soit par un accord commercial limité couvrant des secteurs essentiels, comme celui de la pêche, soit par une extension de l'adhésion du Royaume-Uni au marché unique au-delà de 2020.

    These days, the word "crisis" is gaining a new urgency around the globe… Crisis of humanity, of water, hunger, poverty, climate. Crisis of war, destruction, terrorism. And a crisis of thought, intellectual exchange, theories transfered into reality. And a crisis of think tanks, eventually, although their work matters, since it sends signals, offers proposals and applicable solutions.  In that context, Olusegun Obasanjo, former President of Nigeria and Board member of the Africa Pro ...

In such a context, there is now a greater urgency to adapt the approach and the instruments, thus allowing Euro-Mediterranean partners to seize opportunities towards an effective area of shared stability and pr ...

Key drivers of change in this context include Morocco’s stake in greater economic integration in the Maghreb, a growing role in Africa, new energy and infrastructure projects, and the emergence of Morocco as a hub for communications around th ...
