AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoEU–Comoros Trade Deal: The EU has concluded negotiations to deepen its Economic Partnership Agreement with Comoros (alongside Madagascar, Mauritius and Seychelles), upgrading it into a modern free-trade deal that goes beyond goods to include services, digital trade, public procurement and competition rules—an opening that could make it easier for EU firms to supply services and invest in the islands’ markets. Climate Resilience Funding: The EU also announced a €100 million, four-year programme to help African countries prepare for climate-induced displacement, with Comoros named among the beneficiaries and the EU pushing early warning systems and pre-positioned response efforts. Maritime & Shipping Risk: A tanker linked to a long U.S. pursuit has reappeared under a new name, with registry in Comoros reported and ownership details still unclear—raising fresh questions for regional shipping oversight. Regional Trade Safety Skills: Seychelles ran training to strengthen capacity to identify and manage hazardous chemicals in trade, part of a GEF-funded regional project implemented across Comoros and other island states. Energy Market Watch: Iran and the U.S. have agreed a deal to end the war, with oil prices reacting and attention turning to whether the Strait of Hormuz will see reduced pressure—important for regional costs and business planning.
