The EU-Egypt Partnership Priorities are consistent with the priorities and terms set out in the framework agreed under the revised European Neighbourhood Policy. These priorities are political and economic stabilisation of the neighbourhood and stabilisation of its security. The Partnership Priorities are also consistent with the EU-Egypt Association Agreement, which entered into force in 2004. The proposed EU-Egypt Partnership Priorities reflect the EU’s long-standing engagement towards its Mediterranean partners. However, the priorities are also fully aligned with the recently adopted Global Strategy and its call for an integrated approach in addressing crises. This encompasses the EU’s humanitarian, development, migration, trade, investment, infrastructure, education, health and research policies. The Partnership Priorities aim to address common challenges facing the EU and Egypt, to promote common interests and to guarantee long-term stability on both sides of the Mediterranean. They are guided by a shared commitment to the universal values of democracy, the rule of law and respect for human rights. |
