Why Israel's biggest trading partner seems unable to exert power | DW News

After two years of devastating war, Gaza is under a fragile ceasefire. The focus is now shifting from conflict to the question of who will shape the post-war order.

Internal divisions, reliance on the US, and slow decision-making have limited Europe’s role.
