A shift to ‘strategic interdependence’ could revive the EU’s troubled policy on North AfricaHafed Al-GhwellShort Url https://arab.news/wpps4For every theory of foreign policy, there is an equal and opposite alternative. The EU has traditionally viewed North Africa through an array of prisms, including migration management, counterterrorism, and resource trade. Strategic interdependence in the EU’s North Africa policy will certainly enhance the bloc’s interactions with the region, although a growing undercurrent of Western antipathy will complicate such a pivot. However, this does not mean that the pathway to strategic interdependence would be devoid of challenges. Over time, acknowledging strategic interdependence and its nuanced approach to collaboration will demand acceptance of a new, fractured global order.
