MARQUES, Joaquim Ferreira. The Portuguese presidency of the G7++FoGG: major challenges and main results. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2018, n.57, pp.91-100. ISSN 1645-9199. https://doi.org/10.23906/ri2018.57a06.
Security issues in the Gulf of Guinea have been gaining accuracy due to the significant increase of incidents of piracy, bunkering, drug trafficking, human trafficking, immigration and illegal fishing. Portugal was the first non-member to assume the Presidency of the Group of Friends within the G7 that follows the maritime security themes in the Gulf of Guinea Maritime (G7++FoGG). During its Presidency in 2016 several aspects were attempted: the integral approach to maritime safety (in safety and security), the operationalization of the regional and interregional coordination centers integrated in the architecture of Yaoundé; the exchange of information between institutions and existing mechanisms; the establishment of National Committees of Maritime Security and the optimization of capabilities of multilateral structures based in Lisbon (as the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) and the MAOC-N – Maritime Analysis and Operation Centre – Narcotics).
