1- Mr. Pruitt, you are travelling for the first time to Morocco as head of the Environmental Protection Agency to meet with the Moroccan officials and discuss a range of issues related to Morocco-US cooperation in the field of environment. What do you expect to take care away from these meetings?
2- How do you see the prospects of continued cooperation between Morocco and the US in terms of environment protection and legislation?
3- As you know, Morocco has made remarkable strides in the protection of the environment and in renewable energies, and is expecting to produce half of its electricity from renewable energies in the foreseeable future. What can you say about that experience?

4- The FTA between Morocco and the United States includes a chapter on the environment. Do you have the intention to discuss with the Moroccan authorities activating this chapter when you meet them?
5- How do you view the perspective of bilateral cooperation in waste management?
6. Mr. Pruitt, we know that you are a strong believer in inter-religious and inter cultural dialogue. What do you think about Morocco's leadership in promoting a tolerant reading of Islam that rejects violence and extremism and embraces dialogue between religions?
