France wants to ally with Morocco to deploy in Africa, "strategic priority"!

France shares (with Morocco) the ambition to "deploy in Africa". And this, while France and Europe reflect "on their strategic autonomy" and "reconsider relocating part of their value chains, particularly from Asia, to Mediterranean countries.

Posted 11/23/2021 at 4:43 p.m. Updated 11/23/2021 at 7:37 p.m.

France is showing its ambitions in Africa, a continent with which it has historic links. France has "the ambition" to strengthen its economic presence there in partnership with Morocco, French Minister for Foreign Trade Franck Riester told Rabat, citing a "strategic priority". "There is the question of our shared ambition (with Morocco) to deploy in Africa," said Riester after a 48-hour visit to the Shereefian kingdom.

An ambition considered as a "priority" at a time when "France and Europe are reflecting on their strategic autonomy" and "are rethinking about relocating part of their value chains, particularly from Asia", including to neighboring countries Mediterranean. "This concomitance and this convergence of our strategies suggests possible partnerships for the future" with Morocco, underlined the French minister. He notably mentioned decarbonisation, innovation, renewable energies and new technologies, transport and agro-food.

Rabat has stepped up diplomatic actions in recent years to strengthen its economic presence in Africa but its exchanges with African countries are still weak, according to an official report published in 2020. During his trip, Mr. Riester met the Minister Moroccan Economy and Finance, Nadia Fettah Alaoui, as well as members of Moroccan employers and the French business community.

Nearly a thousand French companies are established in Morocco, totaling more than 10 billion euros in investments. In addition, the Moroccan bosses called on the French minister on the decision of Paris to tighten the conditions for obtaining visas with regard to nationals of the kingdom. A measure denounced as "unjustified" by Rabat.

At the end of September, France decided to reduce the number of visas granted to nationals of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia due to the "refusal" of these Maghreb countries to issue the consular passes necessary for the return of immigrants returned from France. France. "We must arrive as quickly as possible to have a possible return, as was the case before the Covid, of Moroccan nationals in an irregular situation from France to Morocco", pleaded Mr. Riester. "We have really made this concern known to the Moroccan authorities. We must have results as quickly as possible to get out of this situation on top," he said.

How sweet !
After its colonial repression in Africa of almost two centuries, France is asking for help from its protectorate Morocco for further colonial influence in the African continent.

France has an unhealthy obsession with its former colonies. It just doesn't want to let go.

what's wrong with Germany ??
germany is the less of the evil between this 3 countries. They still oppose morocco when it comes to EU trade agreements, and most importantly the sovereignty of moroccan sahara. We will also not forget how they supplied the spanish and french troops, gassing north morocco with chemical weapons. However france and spain is much worse.

Once again, you've overstayed your welcome in my thread. You keep insulting Africa with your condescending and "superior" attitude toward everything African.
Algerian is a former African colony, and it will kick the butt of the country that you love France and every other Western country you have in mind.
Allez Ouste !

"what's wrong with Germany" :
Germany made it clear to Morocco that the occupation of the Western Sahara is illegal,
and that the Saharans will have the right to a Referendum for full Independence from Morocco's occupation.

This was hard for Morocco to swallow.

No kidding, but a single French CSG could probably wipe out their entire navy and air force of ALL Southern Mediterranean countries, not just Algeria.

The hate of the Africans for colonial France and the crimes France committed against them is beyond your level of understanding.
Do yourself a favor, Go troll somewhere else.
What France had done in Africa is HORRIBLE and disgraceful . But that doesn't somehow makes them fell into the category of military inept.

France is nowadays inept militarily and otherwise.
Africa will accept commercial and military collaboration with countries with no colonial past like China and Turkey.

France's days in Africa are over.
Take it from an Algerian who knows France better than the French themselves.
