Even though it is supposed to be a privileged partner of the European Union, Israel regularly targets infrastructure paid for by the EU during its attacks on Palestinians.
So why is Europe not demanding compensation? 
Serbia’s formal application for EU membership on 22 December has been hailed as a great step forward. David Cronin in the Guardian, however, accuses Europe of “brazen hypocrisy” in its dealings towards the former pariah state. 
The Swedish EU presidency proposes the 27 member states recognise East Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state. Though fiercely contested by Israel, this move would stop the situation going from bad to worse, opines the Stockholm daily Expressen.
Launched on 13 July 2008 in Paris, the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) is basically a remodelling of the Barcelona Process that Spain helped get off the ground back in 1995. There was really no need to go to all that trouble, but Nicolas Sarkozy originally had something very different in mind when he initiated this second phase.
