Oslo Accords

Shlomo Ben-Ami (ASPI The Strategist – Project Syndicate) scrive, a trent’anni dalla firma degli Accordi di Oslo, del loro sostanziale fallimento. L’Autore nota come gli Accordi di Abramo del 2020, che hanno normalizzato le relazioni diplomatiche tra Israele, Emirati Arabi Uniti, Bahrein, Marocco e Sudan, siano la prova del fallimento di Oslo. Allora si pensava che la pace con i palestinesi sarebbe servita come trampolino di lancio per la pace tra Israele e il mondo arabo in generale. Hanno invece prevalso le considerazioni geopolitiche: Israele e l’Arabia Saudita sembrano avvicinarsi alla normalizzazione diplomatica. Nel frattempo, la Palestina rimane occupata

Shlomo Ben-Ami (ASPI The Strategist – Project Syndicate) writes, thirty years after the signing of the Oslo Accords, about their substantial failure. The author notes how the Abraham Agreements of 2020, which normalised diplomatic relations between Israel, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan, are proof of Oslo’s failure. At the time, it was thought that peace with the Palestinians would serve as a springboard for peace between Israel and the Arab world at large. Instead, geopolitical considerations prevailed: Israel and Saudi Arabia seem to be moving closer to diplomatic normalisation. Meanwhile, Palestine remains occupied

Peter Clarke (RUSI) scrive che, come scritto nella Integrated Review del 2021 e confermato nella Integrated Review Refresh del 2023, il prossimo conflitto marittimo al quale la Royal Navy  potrebbe partecipare si svolgerà probabilmente nell’Indo-Pacifico o nel Grande Nord. La capacità di attacco a lungo raggio è una capacità chiave per operare in queste regioni, che manca all’attuale flotta della Royal Navy. L’Autore scrive dell’importanza della moderna Q-Ship
