Morocco signs Free Trade Agreement with U.S

Morocco signs Free Trade Agreement with U.S

In a move that will no doubt pay dividends to both countries, Morocco and the US agreed to "immediately eliminate tariffs on more than 95 percent of bilateral trade in consumer and industrial products. All remaining tariffs on these goods are to be eliminated within nine years - the best market access package of any U.S. free trade agreement with a developing country signed to date. The agreement also significantly reduces barriers to agricultural products and services"
