Agreeable liberal firm in Western Europe initially and Middle East (7)
I believe the answer is:
welcome
'agreeable' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'liberal firm in western europe initially and middle east' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'liberal' could be 'l' (abbreviation) and 'l' is located in the answer.
'firm' could be 'co' (a firm is a company) and 'co' is located in the answer.
'western' could be 'w' and 'w' is found in the answer.
'europe' could be 'e' (abbreviation eg in E number) and 'e' is present in the answer.
'middle' could be 'm' (abbreviation for middle) and 'm' is found within the answer.
'east' could be 'e' (abbreviation) and 'e' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for welcome that I've seen before include "Receive gladly" , "Greet warmly" , "vales is delightful!" , "What's kept in hillsides" , "good reception" .)
