MEDA: over 700 million euro in 2004 to support the EU’s Mediterranean partners (26 November 2004)

In 2004, the European Commission is providing, under the MEDA Programme, 709 million euro for co-operation and external aid operations with its Mediterranean partners. This assistance illustrates the EU’s commitment to support development in the region focused on reforms based on common values. Algeria (55 million euro), Egypt (164.5 million euro), Jordan (36.5 million euro), Lebanon (19.5 million euro), Morocco (156 million euro), Syria (55 million euro), Tunisia (24 million euro), and the West Bank and Gaza Strip (73.5 million euro) and the region as a whole (125.5 million euro), are benefiting from this new package that brings the MEDA assistance to the region to over 6.156 billion euro in bilateral and regional co-operation programmes since the Barcelona Process was launched in 1995.
