Euro-mediterranean Free Trade Area




It is envisioned that a FTA with Rules Of Origin with Pan-Euro-Mediterranean Cumulation will be created. It will cover the EU, the EFTA , the EU Customs Unions With Third States ( Turkey , Andorra , San Marino ), the EU Candidate States , the partners of the Barcelona Process and possibly at a later stage all of the European Neighbourhood Policy partners.

The Agadir Agreement of 2004 ( FTA between Jordan , Tunisia , Morocco , Egypt ) is seen as its first building block. Further steps are envisioned into the ENP Action plans negotiated between the European Union and the partner states on the southern shores of the Mediterranean Sea . Lebanon is currently in negotiations to join Agadir.

The initial aim is to create a matrix of Free Trade Agreement s between each of the partners and the others. Then a single free trade area is to be formed, including the European Union .

The Agadir Agreement is seen also as a steping stone to the formation of a Great Arab Free Trade Area {Link without Title} .
