We also applaud Morocco&#8217;s sincere efforts to promote the integration of African and Arab countries into the WTO\u201d, he praised.<\/p>\n<p>He also recalled that, in the course of 2023, Morocco also became the main African destination for Foreign Direct Investment, the main internal African investor in West Africa and the second largest African investor across the continent.<\/p>\n<p>For Ambassador Margarida Izata, the positive and resilient evolution of the Moroccan economy since 2016 is due to fundamental reforms, implemented alongside the opening of trade policies to international markets, through the application of various trade agreements at bilateral, regional and multilateral level, negotiation of new agreements and greater organization and transparency of commercial practices.<\/p>\n<p>The Trade Policy Review (EPC) is part of the Trade Policy Review Mechanism (MEPC), which aims to help WTO Member States comply with the rules, disciplines and commitments of the agreements of this international organization.<\/p>\n<p>Last March, Angola was subjected to the same exercise, having been represented by a delegation led by the Minister of Commerce and Industry, Rui Migue\u0302ns de Oliveira.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
