Morocco and the United Kingdom signed, Saturday in London, an Association agreement that replicates the effects of the existing EU-Morocco Association Agreement.
Signed by minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan expatriates, Nasser Bourita, and the UK Minister of State for the Middle East and North Africa, Andrew Murrison, the agreement will ensure continuity in the trading and wider bilateral relationship between Morocco and the UK, when the UK ceases to be bound by the EU-Morocco Association Agreement.
The two countries have also signed a political declaration, in addition to an exchange of letters on an understanding on dispute settlement and a mutual agreement on the access of all the Moroccan products, including those from the Moroccan Sahara region, to the UK market.
These agreements will ensure continuity in economic relations and trading if the UK leaves the EU and further develop relations between the two countries, Bourita told reporters.
They will also develop the relationship between the two countries' complementary economies, he pointed out.
