The BADIL Resource Center for Palestinian Residency and Refugees Rights has issued a position paper on European Union Conditional Funding: Its Illegality and Political Implications. The paper provides an in-depth analysis of the legality and political implications of Article 1.5 bis imposed in Annex II of the General Conditions Applicable to European Union-Financed Grant Contracts for External Action. This analysis is anchored in both international law and Palestinian domestic law. It provides legal and political context to the unacceptability of the imposition of the aforementioned article and Palestinian arguments and concerns vis-a-vis the claims put forth by the European Union (EU). The paper demonstrates that imposing political conditional funding on CSOs pursuing the right to self-determination of an oppressed and colonized people is not only morally and politically unacceptable, but also illegal in consideration of international law.
