October 10, 2018 (SPS) -. MEP Lidia Senra has accused the European Union of «seeking to legalize the occupation» of Western Sahara through the signing of economic agreements with Morocco.
The European Parliament of the Confederal Group of the European United Left (GUE / NGL) has intervened this Thursday in the commissions of Agriculture and Fisheries, in which she has criticized the action of the European Union in its relations with the Kingdom of Morocco.
Thus, he recalled the «historic» sentence of 2015 in which the European Court overthrew the free trade agreement with Morocco «for violating the rights of the Saharawi people.» In addition, Senra added that there is another court ruling that states that the fishing agreement between the EU and Morocco «is not applicable to Western Sahara.»
