JAN 28th Talk at SIPA: Borders and Security in Israeli Diplomacy

Abstract: When Israelis and Palestinians re-engage in negotiations, the issues of borders and security will continue to be prevalent in Israeli diplomatic considerations. How those positions evolved is surprisingly not well known, even in the US, and hence requires explanation. In recent years, Israel’s regional experiences have further framed its security approach, including its lessons from the Gaza withdrawal in 2005 and the start of the Arab spring in 2011. The Israeli approach to international forces will be fully discussed, as well.
