2021~2022年以色列与非洲联盟关系的新态势

Abstract:Israel announced to become an observer of the African Union on July 22，2021，which means its relationship with Africa has made significant progress. The new development stems from both subjective and objective reasons：the subjective motives on the Israeli part include changing the AU’s position of supporting Palestine in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict，as well as economic，trade and strategic considerations，while the African Union accepts Israel because the Arab-Israeli relations are gradually breaking the ice，the influence of the security situation in Africa and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. However，due to the unresolved state of the Israeli-Palestinian issue，the game between major regional powers in Africa and the defects in Israel’s pragmatic relations with Africa，Israel’s observer status has been strongly opposed by African countries headed by Algeria and South Africa. Thus，the relations between Israel and African Union have a long way to go.
