The Spin

Pro-Palestine narrative

Spain, Ireland, and Norway acknowledged Palestinian statehood at the end of May, paving the path for other EU governments, including France and Germany, to follow suit and press for a two-state solution to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Slovenia's message is clear: It's about being on the right side of history.

Pro-Israel narrative

European countries taking action against Israel by recognizing Palestinian statehood is nothing short of a call for the elimination of the State of Israel. They are becoming complicit in the incitement of genocide and war crimes against Jews. EU states should focus on fostering trust and respect between the parties rather than imposing outcomes.
