No pain, no gain (Kristina Kausch)
05/03/2010This weekend, the ‘advanced status’ of partnership between the EU and Morocco is about to undergo its first major overhaul. The first EU-Morocco summit in Granada on 6-7 March aims to put some flesh on the skinny frame of the statut avancé. Granted to Morocco by the EU in October 2008 via the adoption of a sort of generally formulated roadmap, the new status foresees a substantial intensification of bilateral diplomatic and trade relations between the EU and Morocco.
