This vote effectively means that the European Parliament has endorsed the delegated act submitted by the Commission. It allows for the activation of the provisions of the agricultural agreement, including the explicit inclusion of the Moroccan Sahara within the scope of its implementation, as stipulated in the agreement between the two parties.

This decision represents an additional institutional step confirming the European Union’s commitment to its contractual partnership with Morocco, and it foils attempts by some parties to obstruct the entry of Moroccan agricultural products into the European market or to cast doubt on the legal framework governing this cooperation.
