in writing.
(PT)
I voted against the EU-Morocco agreement on reciprocal liberalisation measures for agricultural products and fishery products for two reasons. Firstly, I cannot accept the way in which Western Sahara, one of the last territories in the world to be under colonial occupation, is being treated as though it were under Moroccan administration. Secondly, I believe that the agreement deepens an agricultural model that fails both sides, by destroying jobs, by lowering the quality of production and by sidelining food safety.
