  • Bilateral Brief India Morocco 0
    EMBASSY OF INDIA RABAT INDIA-MOROCCO BILATERAL RELATIONS 04 February 2019 1. POLITICAL RELATIONS 1.1 Historical Background (i) India and Morocco have interacted in historical terms going back to the 14th century when the famous traveler and writer from Tangier, Ibn Batuta travelled to India. His writings on medieval Indian society are as much an important source of historical information about India to the Indians as to the Moroccans. In modern history, India was active in the UN supporting the Moroccan freedom movement and recognized Morocco on 20 June 1956 when it became independent of the protectorate arrangements with France and diplomatic Missions were established in 1957. Since the establishment of relations, India and Morocco have enjoyed cordial and friendly ties. (ii) After the meeting of HM King Mohammed VI with Hon’ble Prime Minister of India on 30 October 2015, on the sidelines of the third India-Africa Forum Summit (IAFS-III) in New Delhi, India-Morocco bilateral relations have intensified and that can be seen in 19 Ministerial visits between two countries since October 2015 in the areas such as education, space, information technology, cyber security, pharmaceuticals, etc and 32 MoUs/Agreements have been signed, which is more than half of the MoUs/Agreements signed since establishment of the diplomatic relations in 1957. As per provisional trade figures of Statistics Bulletin of Office des Changes, Government of Morocco, for the period January-October 2018, bilateral trade stood at approx US$ 1.5 Billion (1,497.3 million), which is the highest in the history. 1.2 High level bilateral visits 1.2.1 From Indian Side (i) Dr.

  • Interim Environmental Review United States
    Interim Environmental Review United States - Morocco Free Trade Agreement Office of the U.S. Trade Representative September 2003 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Pursuant to authority delegated by the President in Executive Orders 13277 and 13141 and relevant Guidelines for conducting environmental reviews, the United States Trade Representative (USTR) submits this Interim Environmental Review of the prospective United States-Morocco Free Trade Agreement (FTA). On October 1, 2002, in accordance with section 2104(a)(1) of the Trade Act, the U.S. Trade Representative, Ambassador Robert B. Zoellick, notified the Congress of the President’s intent to enter into negotiations for a free trade agreement with Morocco. The formal launch of negotiations took place on January 21, 2003. The two governments are seeking to conclude the negotiations by the end of 2003. Following the guidelines for environmental reviews (65 Fed. Reg. 79,442), this Interim Review examines possible environmental effects that may be associated with the FTA. In determining the scope of this review the Administration solicited public comments through a Federal Register notice (67 Fed. Reg. 70,476) and sought the advice of all agencies with relevant expertise. In preparing the Interim Review, the Administration relied on the expertise of these agencies, as well as a variety of other sources of information, including published reports. The Interim Review provides provisional conclusions and identifies areas for continued attention in the course of the ongoing negotiations. The Administration welcomes public comment on the interim review, including these preliminary determinations: · Based on existing patterns of trade and investment and changes likely to result from provisions of the FTA, the impact of the FTA on total U.S.

  • The Impact of Male Migration from Morocco to Europe on Women: a Gender Approach
    Finisterra, XXXIX, 77, 2004, pp. 59-76 THE IMPACT OF MALE MIGRATION FROM MOROCCO TO EUROPE ON WOMEN: A GENDER APPROACH FATIMA SADIQI 1 MOHA ENNAJI 1 Abstract – This paper offers a gender approach to the impact of male migra- tion from Morocco to Europe on women left behind. The pertinence of the topic stems from the fact that very few studies have been conducted on the subject. It is believed that such studies will help in the understanding of the the phenomenon of migration and help to find solutions for some of the problems it poses. More and more Moroccan women suffer as a result of the migration of their husbands, sons, fathers, etc. Their suffering is not only due to separation from the loved ones but also to the dire economic and social conditions that a heavily patriarchal context does not help to alleviate. Key words : Effects of immigration upon sending countries, Moroccan women, gender Resumo – IMPACTES DA IMIGRAÇÃO MASCULINA DE MARROCOS PARA A EUROPA NAS MULHERES QUE FICAM: UMA ABORDAGEM DE GÉNERO. Este artigo efectua uma abordagem de género à questão do impacte da emigração masculina de Marrocos para a Europa sobre as mulheres que permanecem no país de origem. A pertinência desta questão resulta directamente da escassez de estudos sobre o tema. Considera-se que tais estudos poderão contribuir para a compreensão do fenómeno das migra- ções e ajudar a conceber soluções adequadas para alguns dos problemas por elas suscitados. São cada vez mais as mulheres marroquinas que sofrem em resultado da emigração dos seus maridos, pais, filhos, etc.
