Ten days before the European Court of Justice (ECJ) delivers its verdict on the EU-Morocco fisheries agreement, Willy Fautré, director of Human Rights Without Frontiers (HRWF), told the EU Reporter news portal that the deal is mutually beneficial and conducive to promoting human rights in Morocco. The EU-Morocco Fisheries Partnership Agreement is due for renewal in July 2018. The EU-Morocco fisheries deal is backed by many EU member states, notably Spain and Denmark. Human Rights Without Frontiers is a non-governmental organization, registered since 1989 as an association without lucrative purpose in Belgium. It focuses on research, analysis and monitoring of a wide range of human rights concerns in many countries around the world.
