FRANCE’S STANCE ON ISRAEL AND QATAR’S INFLUENCE

 * Amine Ayoub
 * November 3, 2024
 * France, Israel

France’s foreign policy towards Israel has increasingly come under scrutiny,
particularly under President Emmanuel Macron’s administration. A notable recent
development was the decision to lift a ban on Israeli firms participating in the
Euronaval arms show, which took place near Paris. This decision illustrates the
complexities and contradictions inherent in France’s position, reflecting both
economic interests and geopolitical calculations.

The relationship between France and Israel has historically been multifaceted,
shaped by a combination of diplomatic ties, economic interests, and regional
dynamics. However, the current landscape has shifted significantly, driven by
France’s growing economic ties with Qatar. In early 2024, Qatar pledged a
substantial €10 billion investment in the French economy. This investment is
part of a broader trend where Qatar has increased its presence in France,
acquiring stakes in luxury brands, real estate, and various sectors. The influx
of Qatari capital has positioned France in a precarious situation, where
economic dependence may influence its foreign policy decisions.




Qatar’s influence extends beyond mere economic transactions; it has a
long-standing history of supporting various groups in the Middle East, including
Hamas. This complicates France’s diplomatic stance, particularly in light of
ongoing conflicts involving Israel. France’s recent advocacy for an arms embargo
against Israel and its support for UN peacekeeping missions in Lebanon exemplify
a shift in policy that aligns with Qatari interests. These peacekeeping efforts,
often criticized for their ineffectiveness, further underscore the challenges
France faces in balancing its humanitarian aspirations with political realities.

Additionally, the influence of Qatari investments raises significant concerns
about corruption and the integrity of French politics. The so-called “Qatargate”
scandal, which involves allegations of bribery and illicit financing linked to
Qatari interests, underscores the potential pitfalls of foreign investments that
come with strings attached. This scandal has cast a shadow over the French
political landscape, prompting calls for greater transparency and accountability
in how foreign influence shapes domestic policy.

President Macron’s engagement with Iranian officials, some of whom have
connections to Hezbollah, highlights a broader strategic pivot. By positioning
France as a “protector” of Lebanon, Macron risks deepening France’s involvement
in regional conflicts and inadvertently empowering groups like Hezbollah, which
is recognized as a terrorist organization by many countries, including the
United States and members of the European Union. This approach raises critical
questions about the implications for Israel and regional stability, as France
navigates the delicate balance between supporting its allies and engaging with
adversarial states.



Further complicating this landscape is the upcoming football match between
France and Israel, scheduled for November 14 at the Stade de France. This event
has become a flashpoint for political tensions in France, particularly in the
context of the ongoing conflict in Gaza. French Deputy Louis Boyard has called
for the cancellation of the match, citing the humanitarian crisis and invoking
FIFA’s statutes on human rights. He argues that the international football
governing body has previously sanctioned other countries for human rights
violations and questions why similar actions are not taken against Israel.

In contrast, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau has insisted that the match
should proceed, framing it as a matter of principle. He emphasizes the need to
adapt security measures in light of the current geopolitical climate. The
government is under pressure to ensure public safety, given the heightened
tensions related to the conflict, and Retailleau has promised a robust security
presence at the event.

Moreover, President Macron recently faced backlash for his comments regarding
the creation of Israel. In a press conference on October 17, he stated that
Israel was established by a decision of the UN, a simplification that offended
many, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Macron defended his
remarks by highlighting France’s historical recognition of Israel following its
independence in 1948. However, this assertion has been challenged, with critics
arguing that Macron’s statements overlook the complexities of the historical
context. This incident not only sparked controversy but also illustrated the
delicate balance Macron must maintain between France’s ties with Israel and its
relationships with Arab nations.



As France navigates this complex geopolitical landscape, it faces the challenge
of balancing its economic needs with its political obligations. The allure of
Qatari investment, while beneficial in the short term, poses long-term risks
that could undermine France’s credibility and influence in international
affairs. The future of French foreign policy will depend on how effectively the
government can address these challenges while maintaining its standing on the
global stage.

In navigating this intricate web of relationships, France must remain vigilant
to the potential consequences of its actions. Balancing the pursuit of economic
growth with principled foreign policy will be essential in maintaining France’s
legacy as a global actor committed to peace, stability, and justice in a region
fraught with conflict and complexity.
