"This Chaillot Paper analyses the EU’s relations with five North African
countries – Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia. In particular it
focuses on how the fallout of the war in Ukraine as well as the ongoing
migration crisis have affected relations. The volume addresses some of
the perceived shortfalls in the current EU strategy towards these
countries and identifies future areas of both tension and cooperation. The
five country-specific chapters examine the EU approach to each country
and provide a range of policy recommendations for the EU’s foreign policy
in North Africa. One aspect on which the authors agree is the need for the
EU to pay more attention to its southern neighbourhood as its influence
has diminished considerably in the region. The different chapters and
perspectives presented in this Chaillot Paper provide EU decision-makers
with insights and recommendations for designing a better approach to the
bloc’s southern neighbourhood, one that will enable Europe to strengthen
its leverage in this critical region." [Editor]

"Africa is experiencing a far-reaching social, economic and
demographic transformation, while gaining increasing prominence in
global geopolitics. To take account of these changes, this Chaillot Paper
sets out to update our ‘mental map’ of the continent and zoom in on the
trends and dynamics that are reshaping Africa and thus affecting its
relationship with the European Union. Modelled on an atlas, it presents
a series of visually engaging maps, charts and graphics, to convey key
messages and statistics on themes as diverse as food sovereignty,
urbanisation, climate resilience, migration and mobility as well as
peace and security. Using these infographics, it aims to chart the way
forward for a modern and forward-looking partnership between the
African Union and the European Union…” [Editor]
