IOC-Tunisia: Strengthening international cooperation

Tunis / 31.10.2021
Returning from the diplomatic mission to Pakistan, the Executive Director, Abdellatif Ghedira, and the Head of the External Relations Department, Mounir Fourati, reached Tunis for an official meeting with the Minister of Agriculture, Water Resources and Fisheries, Mahmoud Elias Hamza. The meeting was very cordial and the working session with the IOC Executive Secretariat was fruitful. At the end of the meeting, an official note from the Tunisian government detailed the topics discussed. In particular, the current situation and prospects for international cooperation with the Tunisian government were discussed. The officials also discussed the upcoming participation of the Tunisian delegation at the 114th session of the Council of Members in Tbilisi, Georgia, on 24, 25 and 26 November 2021. The Minister was also informed of the modalities of IOC support to the Training Centre of the National Olive Oil Board. Preparations for Tunisia’s participation in the 21st edition of Expoliva in 2023 were also on the agenda of the meeting, as Tunisia will be the guest of honour at the event. The visit of the IOC representatives to the Tunisian government also confirmed the mutual interest in strengthening cooperation in the field of scientific research at the international level.
“These issues are all very topical,” the Executive Director said in a statement, “as they are common interests already provided for in the International Agreement on Olive Oil and Table Olives, which the Executive Secretariat is tasked with supporting and promoting to member countries in order to strengthen their presence and that of the IOC standard in international markets.”

 

COI – Tunisie : Renforcement de la coopération internationale
 Tunis – De retour de la mission diplomatique au Pakistan, le Directeur exécutif du COI, Abdellatif Ghedira, et le chef du Département des Relations extérieures, Mounir Fourati, ont rejoint Tunis pour une rencontre officielle avec le ministre de l’Agriculture, des Ressources hydrauliques et de la Pêche maritime, Mahmoud Elias Hamza. La rencontre avec le représentant du gouvernement tunisien a été très cordiale et la séance de travail avec le Secrétariat exécutif du COI s’est avérée fructueuse. À l’issue de la réunion, une note officielle du gouvernement tunisien a détaillé les sujets abordés. Il a été question en particulier de la situation actuelle et des perspectives de la coopération internationale entre le gouvernement tunisien et le Conseil oléicole international. Les responsables ont également discuté de la participation prochaine de la délégation tunisienne aux travaux de la 114e session du Conseil oléicole international qui se tiendra à Tbilissi, en Géorgie, les 24, 25 et 26 novembre. De même, le ministre a été informé des modalités de soutien du COI au Centre de formation de l’Office national de l’huile. Les préparatifs de la participation de la Tunisie à la 21e édition du Salon international Expoliva en 2023 étaient également à l’ordre du jour de cette réunion, car la Tunisie sera l’invitée d’honneur de la prochaine édition. La visite des représentants du COI au gouvernement tunisien a également permis de confirmer l’intérêt mutuel pour le renforcement de la coopération entre les deux institutions dans le domaine de la recherche scientifique au niveau international.
« Ces questions sont toutes très actuelles », a déclaré le Directeur exécutif du COI dans un communiqué, « car il s’agit d’intérêts communs déjà prévus dans l’Accord international sur l’huile d’olive et les olives de table du COI, que le Secrétariat exécutif a pour mission de soutenir et de promouvoir auprès des pays membres afin de renforcer leur présence et la norme du COI sur les marchés internationaux. »
