\u00c0 l’issue de la session pl\u00e9ni\u00e8re inaugurale de l’Assembl\u00e9e parlementaire Cara\u00efbes-UE qui s’est tenue \u00e0 Antigua-et-Barbuda du 16 au 18 f\u00e9vrier, le copr\u00e9sident Malik Azmani a soulign\u00e9 l’importance historique de cette r\u00e9union. Il a fait remarquer qu’elle marquait le lancement officiel du volet parlementaire de l’Accord de Samoa, une \u00e9tape cruciale dans le renforcement des relations entre les deux r\u00e9gions, selon un communiqu\u00e9 de presse.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cette premi\u00e8re session pl\u00e9ni\u00e8re aurait d\u00e9montr\u00e9 une volont\u00e9 politique collective d’approfondir le dialogue et de renforcer la collaboration entre partenaires partageant les m\u00eames valeurs. Ces alli\u00e9s sont unis par des liens historiques de longue date, des valeurs fondamentales communes et un engagement mutuel envers la d\u00e9mocratie, le multilat\u00e9ralisme et le respect du droit international.<\/span><\/p>\n

Selon le communiqu\u00e9, la r\u00e9union s’est tenue dans un contexte mondial complexe et a d\u00fb relever de nombreux d\u00e9fis, notamment l’escalade des tensions g\u00e9opolitiques, les pressions croissantes sur l’ordre international fond\u00e9 sur des r\u00e8gles et les crises g\u00e9n\u00e9ralis\u00e9es qui affectent les soci\u00e9t\u00e9s, les \u00e9conomies et la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 dans le monde entier. Dans ce contexte, l’importance de la coop\u00e9ration entre l’Union europ\u00e9enne et les pays des Cara\u00efbes n’a jamais \u00e9t\u00e9 aussi cruciale, affirme l’UE.<\/span><\/p>\n

Durant ces trois jours, des parlementaires europ\u00e9ens et carib\u00e9ens ont particip\u00e9 \u00e0 des d\u00e9bats constructifs et tourn\u00e9s vers l’avenir, articul\u00e9s autour de cinq axes strat\u00e9giques cl\u00e9s\u00a0: la r\u00e9silience climatique et la transition \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique\u00a0; les opportunit\u00e9s commerciales et d’investissement\u00a0; la lutte contre la criminalit\u00e9 transnationale organis\u00e9e\u00a0; la sauvegarde de l’int\u00e9grit\u00e9 territoriale et la promotion du multilat\u00e9ralisme\u00a0; et la gestion de la situation en Ha\u00efti. Les participants ont exprim\u00e9 leur vive pr\u00e9occupation face \u00e0 la situation critique d’Ha\u00efti, r\u00e9affirmant leur ferme soutien \u00e0 un processus politique men\u00e9 par les Ha\u00eftiens et soulignant l’urgence de lutter contre l’ins\u00e9curit\u00e9 et d’att\u00e9nuer la crise humanitaire croissante.<\/span><\/p>\n

Il semblerait qu’un consensus se soit d\u00e9gag\u00e9 sur la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 d’\u00e9laborer, dans le cadre de l’initiative Global Gateway, un Pacte Cara\u00efbes-UE pour la r\u00e9silience climatique et les \u00e9nergies renouvelables. Par ailleurs, les discussions ont port\u00e9 sur la mise en place d’une approche coordonn\u00e9e de la gestion des prolif\u00e9rations d’algues sargasses, notamment par un financement accru de la recherche sur les utilisations alternatives. Parmi les autres sujets abord\u00e9s figuraient l’\u00e9largissement des perspectives commerciales, l’am\u00e9lioration de l’acc\u00e8s aux march\u00e9s, le renforcement de la coop\u00e9ration dans l’\u00e9conomie num\u00e9rique et les investissements, ainsi que l’am\u00e9lioration des capacit\u00e9s de r\u00e9glementation commerciale.<\/span><\/p>\n

As per the release, the assembly was further enriched by an engaging and participatory Youth Forum, which highlighted the vital role that young people play in climate resilience efforts. The forum stressed the importance of developing green skills among youth to ensure sustainable progress.<\/p>\n

The Women\u2019s Forum contributed valuable insights on women\u2019s economic empowerment, emphasizing better access to finance and reaffirming women\u2019s crucial role in shaping the future of Caribbean\u2013EU relations.<\/p>\n

In conclusion, the Assembly adopted a series of tangible recommendations directed at the Caribbean\u2013EU Council of Ministers. These directives are intended to serve as a roadmap for future joint initiatives. Co-President Azmani reaffirmed that the European Parliament delegation, having participated in the Antigua and Barbuda meeting, is more convinced than ever that ongoing engagement and strengthened political dialogue are vital for advancing shared prosperity and defending a multilateral, rules-based international order.<\/p>\n
