Описание: EU AND THE MIDDLE EAST PEACE PROCESS - BROKERING OR FACILITATING? - Interview with Anders Persson by Jerzy Wójcik, about the Anders Persson's book: "EU Diplomacy and the Israeli–Arab Conflict, 1967–2019".
-------------------------------
Anders Persson and Jerzy Wojcik spoke for quite a long time and we hope that this conversation will bright a new point of reference to the understanding of the role of the EU in Israeli-Arab conflict. We are accustomed to the traditional no-action attitudes of the Europeans. But if You analyze this deeply and put this in the much larger picture You can see the importance and legitimacy of European involvement in the Middle East Peace Process (MEPP).

📌What was the role of Europeans during the Oslo era?
📌Is the infrastructure of Palestinian State ready for the state implementation?
📌Does Europe stay dedicated to the Palestinian state within 1967 borders? Or is there a room for modification?
📌Is it reasonable for Europe to financially support PA, knowing of irregularities in spending.
📌Europe and Abraham accords: will there be a shift in the European approach to Palestinians first policy?
📌Finally, Does Europe see itself as a broker again in the MEPP, as it happened in the 90’?

We start the interview calmly with a bit of the conversation about the Joe Biden presidency and its potential impact on MEPP. But quickly we will get into the core of the topic. The recording will be broadcast on Sunday 15th, 2020 – 3pm CET.
