How to find the way to Maghrib?

摘要

The nearest future of Ukrainian foreign trade depends on the markets of third countries. This thesis is no longer objected by both managers of exporting companies or state officers. Morocco, mysterious Maghrib country of Arabian fairy tales remembered from youth, is one of such promising markets. Moroccans describe geographical position of their country in one phrase: "Atlantic Ocean in front and Sahara backward". When the weather is good one can see the walls of Gibraltar medieval fortress, the shores of Europe, from Moroccan side of Straits of Hercules. Unique geopolitical status of Morocco has been profitable for national economy since ancient times when the world for Europeans finished somewhere here, behind Pillars of Hercules. Like then, the country in the high northeastern corner of Africa plays the role, of Mediterranean gates, gateway to Atlantic, and entrance to Africa at present. Like previously foreign trade, sea transportation, and fishing play an important role in the economy of the country.
