 Commissioner for the Mediterranean Dubravka Šuica attended the inaugural meeting of the Board of Peace (BoP) in Washington. Her presence triggered significant criticism from several Member States and European Parliament groups, considering that she did not have a mandate to take part in such a politically contested initiative. The European Commission, on the other hand, defended her participation on the ground that the EU has a direct interest in the reconstruction of Gaza. Given the questions surrounding the compatibility of the BoP Charter with the EU’s constitutional principles, the Commission’s unilateral action is difficult to defend.
