This article revisits Israel's trade and political alliance with the European Union – its major trade partner. The article examines the position calling to water down Israel-EU trade relations, considering EU's insistence on linking economic benefits with political advancement in the region, insights gained by the COVID-19 pandemic and substantial recent regional developments: Israel's trade diversification policy, the conclusion of Abraham Accords and the discovery of gas in the Eastern Mediterranean basin. Concluding that such a strategy may not serve the parties' interests best, the article explores ways to leverage these developments to further enhance EU-Israel partnership.

The Uk

As a result of the longer preparation process, 51.9% of voters voted in the UK on 23 June 2016 in the form of a referendum to leave the European Union. Although the negotiation process has begun, many decisive points and principles - the negotiators' agreement on the post-exit process - have not decided at the beginning of 2019. The fact that the United Kingdom officially withdraws from the European Union will significantly transform bilateral trade relations. Through the – till now – fruitful cooperation, both sides were able to take advantages and thus have achieved substantial economic benefits, economic and welfare growth. It seems that the UK has been more in need of its trade, so it is becoming increasingly important on what conditions the new cooperation will operate. But it may also be important to see how the British exit will affect Hungary. Within this framework, one specific area of trade policy, the analysis and evaluation of agri-food processes, should be carried out. Although there is a significant geographical distance between the two countries, there has been a growing and significant commercial activity due to the favorable trade effects. The purpose of this study is to structure the trade effects between the agri-food industry. In addition, there is a need to organize the affected branches and expected effects too.

This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of the withdrawal agreement concluded between the United Kingdom and the European Union to create the legal framework for Brexit. Building on a prior volume, it overviews the process of Brexit negotiations that took place between the UK and the EU from 2017 to 2019. It also examines the key provisions of the Brexit deal, including the protection of citizens’ rights, the Irish border, and the financial settlement. Moreover, the book assesses the governance provisions on transition, decision-making and adjudication, and the prospects for future EU–UK trade relations. Finally, it reflects on the longer-term challenges that the implementation of the 2016 Brexit referendum poses for the UK territorial system, for British–Irish relations, as well as for the future of the EU beyond Brexit.

In 1975, to try to address the physical, chemical and biological alteration of these delicate ecosystems, 16 Mediterranean States together with the European Union, implemented the Mediterranean Action Plan (MAP). The aim was to safeguard the marine environment and promote its development in the Mediterranean basin.

Within the framework of external relations policy as a subject of international law, the European Union has the right to negotiate, conclude, amend and terminate international agreements on its own behalf, i.e., it has competences granted on it in this area by the Treaties. International agreements concluded at European level are results of an agreement between parties and belong to the sources of European Union Law. Current practice in concluding international agreements at the level of the European Union proves that trade and investment agreements contain provisions concerning civil society, labor relations andenvironment. The scientific study opens a discussion on a new model of international agreements which, in addition to trade relations, contain provisions on the social status of employees of the parties and on sustainable development. This new model of international treaties is supported by all Member States. The systems analysis shows that the European Union no longer acts as an economic-integration grouping towards third countries, but as an international organization that takes into account high level of environmental protection and the protection of employees' industrial relations.
