PRESS RELEASE Morocco strengthens the positioning of local products in the Middle East market Morocco is taking part in the SIAL Middle East 2018 International Food Show that will be held in Abu Dhabi from 10th to 12th December. Organized for the sixth year in a row by the Agricultural Development Agency (ADA), in the framework of the ambitious development strategy for the marketing and promotion of local products, set up in the framework of the Green Morocco Plan, which has given particular importance to this segment and made it one of its privileged objectives. 11 regions of the Kingdom will be present at this show through 24 exhibitors producing local products representing about 100 agricultural cooperatives and gathering more than 3130 small farmers. During the 3 days of this world food industry meeting, the Moroccan participants will present a wide range of finely selected products, amounting to more than 130 local products including 14 labeled products, which stands up as an opportunity to showcase the great diversity and dynamism of the Morocco offer to the 16,000 professionals expected during this event. Prior to this event, the exhibitors benefited from the marketing and commercial support needed by the ADA to assist them in order to highlight the potential of their products and prepare their meetings with prospects from the United Arab Emirates and Gulf countries.

Free Trade Agreements (Ftas) in the Middle East
11 Egypt, Morocco, and the United States AHMED GALAL AND ROBERT Z. LAWRENCE The political importance of the Middle East to the United States is evident from the willingness of the United States to wage a war in Iraq, the polit- ical capital some US administrations have invested in resolving the Pales- tinian-Israeli conflict, and the amount of aid extended to such countries as Egypt and Israel. It is not surprising, therefore, that political rather than economic considerations have driven US free trade agreements (FTAs) in the Middle East. This is true of the agreements that the United States has already implemented (with Israel and Jordan), as well as agreements that are being contemplated with other countries in the region and with the re- gion as a whole. Indeed, it can be argued that FTAs between the United States and Middle Eastern countries are fundamentally about potentially large political (and consequently economic) gains for the United States, while the potential gains to the countries themselves are mostly economic in nature (and consequently political).1 Nonetheless, it is risky, even for the United States, to focus on politics alone. The history of the Middle East, like that of many other regions, is replete with failed regional economic integration initiatives that were purely politically motivated and not supported by the necessary eco- nomic measures. In the long run, not only did these initiatives fail to pro- Ahmed Galal is executive director and director of research for the Egyptian Center for Economic Stud- ies (ECES) in Cairo and Robert Z. Lawrence is a senior fellow at the Institute for International Eco- nomics.

Morocco Gained Independence in 1956 After More
COUNTRIES AT THE CROSSROADS COUNTRIES AT THE CROSSROADS 2011: MOROCCO 1 GUILAIN DENOEUX INTRODUCTION Morocco gained independence in 1956 after more than 40 years as a French protectorate (though Spain had controlled the northern third of the country as well as the Western Sahara). King Mohamed V reigned until his death in 1961, at which point his son, Hassan II, began three decades of authoritarian rule, followed by a significant political liberalization during the 1990s. From the 1960s through the 1980s, King Hassan’s reign featured large-scale human rights abuses, including unlawful incarceration of regime critics, torture, and the enforced disappearance of many political opponents. In essence, while King Hassan preferred to rely on divide-and-rule, cooptation and intimidation tactics, he did not hesitate to harshly repress those who refused to play by his rules and remain within the ―red lines‖ he set. In October 1975, Morocco annexed the Western Sahara, a territory south of the kingdom. During an initial war between Morocco and Sahrawi nationalists, led by the Polisario Front, many Sahrawis moved to refugee camps in Algeria. Those who remained behind in the annexed territory have been demanding independence ever since and several have been jailed for that reason. Hassan II’s son, Mohamed VI, inherited the throne upon his father’s death in July 1999. Initially, he expanded the process of political liberalization he had inherited. He dismissed some of the stalwarts of his father’s oppressive regime, allowed the return of exiled political dissidents, established an organization to investigate official human rights abuses from 1956 to 1999, and reached out to constituencies (such as former political prisoners) and regions (such as northern Morocco) that had suffered or been neglected during his father’s reign.

China has focused on bilateral relations with these countries while also working within the Forum on China–Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) and the China–Arab States Cooperation Forum (CASCF). However, this engagement has limited strategic value compared to relations China has with Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates. • Since the launch of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in 2013, China has shown greater interest in the Maghreb as an entry point to European and African markets. China has pursued commercial relations over political influence in the region. Morocco and Tunisia are still dependent on France, their former colonial power, and the European Union, which exert great political, economic, security and cultural influence over the two countries. • The Maghreb countries’ economic relations with China have grown exponentially, with Algeria forming the closest relationship. However, Morocco and Tunisia are keen to attract China’s investment and involvement in major construction and infrastructure projects to boost industrial and economic development.

The Presence of the Colonial Past: Equatorial Guinean Women in Spain

The starting premise is that a notable famil- iarity with Spanish culture (language and religion) as a former African colony and a long period of settlement in Spain that dates back to the 1940s should have favoured greater social advancement of this group. However, the ﬁeldwork shows that they have been held back by the marginalised position of Equatorial Guinea in Spain’s current collective imaginary of its colonial past, as well as by the socio-laboural precariousness they have experienced since their arrival. Based on the body of thought of postcolonial theory, and from a predominantly anthropological and historical standpoint, this article analyses the heavy burden of social invisibility and unequal economic opportunities that these women carry. The paper concludes that migrant memories must be incorporated into the Hispano-African narrative to create a more trustworthy account of the shared Spanish and Equatorial Guinean past, and that there is an urgent need to implement policies in Spain that promote equality regardless of ethnicity, race, and gender.
