One Year after October 7: How have US and EU Foreign Policies Evolved?

ACW webinar recording. Event description: "As the war on Gaza enters its second year, Arab Center Washington DC (ACW) and Centre Arabe de Recherche et d’études Politiques de Paris (CAREP Paris) are co-hosting a webinar to critically analyze the shifts and continuities in the foreign policies of the United States (US) and the European Union (EU) regarding the ongoing war in Gaza. Panelists will explore how these policies have adapted or remained consistent in response to the unfolding humanitarian, political, and military developments in the region. Additionally, speakers will assess the implications of these foreign policies within the broader framework of international law, particularly focusing on state compliance and obligations under international law and the enforcement of international norms. What have been the primary changes in US and EU foreign policies towards Gaza over the past year? How do these policy shifts align with or deviate from previous strategies? What role can the international legal system play in shaping those policies? What are some policy expectations and recommendations going forward to end the war and uphold the principles of human rights and international law? The discussion will provide a nuanced understanding of US and EU policies and will contribute to the ongoing dialogue among policymakers, scholars, and practitioners involved in international relations and law."
