The Tarascon Court has issued a ruling against the Paysanne Confederation, which was aiming to prevent the sale of Moroccan fruits and vegetables in France’s markets. The motion raised by Paysanne sought to prevent IDYL, which is the company responsible for marketing Moroccan imports, from selling its products in French markets. They also demanded monetary payments and fines to compensate for alleged damages the company was responsible for.
The legal action was reportedly a part of the efforts from separatist organization Polisario, who seek to establish a self-proclaimed state in Morocco’s southern provinces. IDYL is responsible for selling the fruits and vegetables imported from Morocco, including from the country’s southern provinces.
The ruling comes a few weeks after the UK’s London Court of Appeals also upheld the country’s trade deal with Morocco.
