Abstract
This article addresses the crucial question of why European policies in the Israeli-Palestinian arena have remained contradictory and partly counterproductive. It suggests that European policies are stuck in the (no longer pertinent) logic of the Oslo process to achieve a two-state solution. The reasons for this stasis include the peculiarities of the European Union's decision-making process, lack of consensus within the international community on any alternative framework, and Europe's prioritization of stability in its "neighborhood."
