Economic ties going strong between Israel, Palestine
Palestinian-Israeli economic relations seem unaffected by the political stalemate hindering peace talks between the two sides.
The political stalemate between Israel and Palestine continues and Palestinian-Israeli negotiations have shown zero progress since 2014. Nevertheless, the security and economic cooperation between the two sides seems to always stay the course. This is particularly intriguing since such sectors often depend on political relations, but they are somehow unrelated in this case.
On Sept. 2, Israel’s News1 reported that “technical projects carried out by Israeli and Palestinian companies, the last of which is a project to establish a large data center in Ramallah at a cost of $50 million, was implemented by the Israeli branch of Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), the American multinational information technology enterprise.”
