Over the last few years, the EU and its member states have become ever more active in conflict management in the Middle East. ESDP missions in the Palestinian territories such as EUBAM Rafah and EUPOL COPPS, European involvement in the security sector in Lebanon and the Palestinian territories, and a strong European participation in the upgraded UNIFIL testify to this change. In addition, the EU and its member states have engaged in attempts at conflict resolution, above all, in the context of the Middle East Quartet.
