Five Rules of Thumb: The EU has to reform it politics, before it reforms aid; The EU has to be a player NOT a payer in the peace process; The EU intervention has to be reformed regardless of Kerry’s failure of end of Fayyadism; Honesty to overcome hypocrisy and contradictions is the key. Let the “off-the-records” discussions and opinions lead the action; Change this equation: “the US decides, the World Bank leads, the EU pays, the UN feeds, and Israel destroys”.

A presentation at “Europe’s Toolbox and Israel-Palestine Relations After the Kerry Effort: What Role for What Purpose?”, European Council on Foreign Relations and LSE’s Middle East Centre, London, 29 May 2014.
