Secretary General

My mandate as Secretary General of the Union for the Mediterranean comes to an end today. It has been a true honor and privilege to contribute to the development of the activities of the UfM during this crucial phase for the evolution of the region.
I leave with the belief, stronger than ever, that strengthening cooperation and integration in the Mediterranean is a strategic priority for the region
