    What are you talking about, an agenda? I presented the link and the graph and gave the post a title as to what stood out the most to me.

    I didn’t include the UK because I thought that the UK had still been in the EU in 2021 (I misremembered that Brexit was November 2021 and not 2020) - Regardless, UK is in Europe. Israel is not, and never has been to my knowledge.

      @Babalugats@feddit.uk

      An important detail that others have already said is that the EU collaborates with a lot of non-EU and also with non-European countries. Here is a list of the EU’s Science and Technology Agreements with non-EU countries.

      It has also been said that these countries must contribute financially for the projects they apply, another point that is important in this context that you didn’t mention.

      What ‘stood out most’ to you and the way you represented it is a detail out of context that ends up in an article reflecting a completely distorted reality.

        A more important detail is that Europe is collaborating with a Genocidal regime here.

        It has also been said that these countries must contribute financially for the projects they apply, another point that is important in this context that you didn’t mention.

        It has also been said that many of the Israeli projects have ended up helping Israel to commit genocide.

        What stood out most is that Israel is committing genocide and undoubtedly benefiting from these funds. As a European, I am disgusted that there is any involvement in such a way, but i am glad that it is public as it allows people to make up their own minds and see things as they are. Similarly it shows that these instances seem to have started heading the same way as sub forums with like named topics went.
