In theory, Europe currently seems much more compatible with the multipolar world of the 21st century than the United States. But it still needs to prove it.<\/p>\n
From 1st<\/sup> July, Europe will be put to the test. Officially, this is the date on which the implementation of the plan to annex the Occupied Territories to Israel will begin.[1]<\/a> It is also the date that a strong presidency of the Council of the EU will begin \u2013 that of Germany.[2]<\/a> This simultaneity is probably not the result of pure chance.<\/p>\n There is no need to detail the reasons why this plan necessarily poses existential threats to Israel, but it also carries risks for Europe, ranging from a resurgence of terrorist acts to a new wave of Arab and\/or Israeli migrants, an explosion of racism and anti-Semitism and, ultimately, the return of \u2018populist\u2019 governments or, even worse, hard forms of Euro-sovereignist government.\t\t
