Fish Elsewhere
Thirty years ago the North African territory of Western Sahara was invaded by Morocco. The European Commission is currently finalising a Fisheries Partnership Agreement with Morocco, allowing EU fishing access to Moroccan waters. It would allow European boats to fish in the illegally occupied waters of Western Sahara. This would violate international law and prolong the 30-year-old conflict. A coalition of campaign groups, trade unions and politicians from across Europe and around the world has launched a campaign to exclude Western Sahara from the EU-Morocco Fisheries Partnership Agreement.
