The resolution of the Arab-Israeli conflict is a strategic priority for Europe, as it seeks to play a role of power broker in the region. For this, it condemns the planned settlement construction of Israel in the occupied Palestinian territory, and believes that the creation of an independent, viable and democratic Palestinian state is in Israel’s interest. But before getting overly involved in these resolutions, it is important to step back and assess the limitations of the EU in the region.

GOING GREEN!
