Answer given by High Representative/Vice-President Borrell on behalf of the European Commission

14.4.2020

The EU values its relationship with the State of Israel and is committed to a regular dialogue as foreseen in the EU-Israel Association Agreement[1] and by the EU-Israel European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) Action Plan[2].

EU-Israel sub-committee meetings covering all the sectoral issues included in the Agreement are held regularly with the involvement of all related Commission services and in the presence of Member State representatives.

The EU is keen to schedule a meeting of the Association Council as soon as a date can be mutually agreed.
