Don’t Forget the Gulf
The Burj al-Arab at sunset
EU policy towards the Middle East and North Africa is overly fragmented and contradicts the political and economic logic of the region.

Encouraging regional links between Mediterranean and Gulf states could help expose the latter to the more liberal trends spreading through the region.
