A Monument to a Bygone Era

In "EU Two-State Policy: A Monument to a Bygone Era," senior geopolitical analyst Erika Grey delivers an incisive and groundbreaking exploration of the European Union’s decades-old two-state policy toward Israel and Palestine. Drawing from over thirty years of research inside the European Movement and direct engagement with the EU’s federalist architects, Grey takes readers deep into the engine of the "European Project" to reveal how a dated 20th-century doctrine became a permanent, frozen fixture in the Union’s DNA .

Grey meticulously dismantles the institutional architecture of EU foreign policy, from the 1980 Venice Declaration to the 1992 Edinburgh Summit. She demonstrates how these frameworks have hardened into a "diplomatic cage," forcing each successive High Representative to implement policies that are not only ineffective but actively counterproductive to the EU’s own strategic ambitions .

Using her proprietary structural analysis, Grey exposes a catastrophic miscalculation: while the EU remains tethered to a policy from 1980, the "peripheral state" of the past has vanished. In its place stands Israel as a Super Nation—a high-performance state with a GDP eclipsing G7 stalwarts and a technological footprint that serves as the silent engine for Europe’s own Green and Tech transitions.

"EU Two-State Policy" is more than a critique; it is a strategic roadmap. Grey presents a clear, actionable path for reversing decades of diplomatic inertia, aligning the EU’s "recipe" with the reality of the modern multipolar order. It is an essential resource for policymakers and observers who recognize that in the new age of empires, the status quo is no longer an option .
