            <description>The Joint Africa-EU Strategy (JAES), a policy document based on a shared vision and common principles, is meant to reflect both partners’ priorities. But decision-making based on mutual interest turned out to be a challenge and the process and political direction of the JAES could be optimized. ECDPM’s Simone Goertz reflects on the results of a recent JAES Task Force meeting and sets out where the partnership stands in a commentary on our Talking Points blog. While a lot of cooperative spirit is visible in many areas, the JAES still lacks a political roadmap to face political challenges such as limited ownership and weak political dialogue. “Any joint strategy clearly needs strategic thinking about a strategic partnership”, Goertz writes.</description>

            <description>The European Union has been trying to achieve its long-term goals through partnerships and cooperation with other like-minded global actors. Africa (through its regional institutional body, the African Union) has been the first and only multilateral entity with which the EU has forged a long-term partnership. Despite its rhetorical language, the Africa--EU Strategic Partnership is unlikely to upgrade the political and economic interaction between the two partners. In the past few years, serious rifts have grown between the EU and its African counterparts concerning trade agreements and development policies. Moreover, new actors have made significant inroads in Africa, providing an alternative to its long-standing dependence on Europe.</description>
