TEL AVIV – Hebrew media reported on Monday that the Israeli occupation proposed to the European Union (EU) to build an island for Palestinians in the Mediterranean Sea, Khaberni reported.اضافة اعلان

The EU is the primary source of economic aid to the Palestinians and has a comprehensive cooperation deal with Israel, which includes a free trade zone. Some officials secretly speculate that this may be used to influence Israel.

A document proposed by the EU's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, outlines a series of "procedural steps" that are believed to be capable of bringing peace to Gaza, establishing an independent Palestinian state, normalizing relations between Israel and the Arab world, ensuring long-term security in the region, and centered on a "peace preparatory conference." The plan asks for the convening of "key actors," namely the EU, the US, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the Arab League, and the United Nations.

Participants will be in constant contact with Israeli and Palestinian officials, referred to as “conflict parties,” but the two sides will not initially be required to sit with each other. Gaza and the West Bank will be represented by the Palestinian Authority (PA) and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) rather than Hamas, which has governed Gaza since 2007.

In light of these talks, Israeli officials attempted to convince the EU to build an island for Palestinians and establish a Palestinian state there, acting as a weak attempt to deport the nation.
