Written question – Enforcement of CJEU judgments of 4 October 2024 – E-002615/2025

Question for written answer  E-002615/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Cristina Maestre (S&D), Eric Sargiacomo (S&D)

On 4 October 2024, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) ruled that, so as not to mislead consumers, agricultural products imported into the EU must be labelled to distinguish between those from Western Sahara and from Morocco. In October, moreover, the suspension period for the rulings annulling the trade agreements on fisheries and agriculture concluded between the European Union and Morocco will lapse.

Considering the above:

• 1.What is the European Commission’s strategy to ensure compliance with the obligation to label products from Western Sahara?
• 2.What measures will the European Commission propose to ensure that the new agricultural agreement with Morocco effectively protects EU tomato producers from competition and the lack of reciprocity in respect of Moroccan tomato imports?
