Les États-Unis face à Israël. Avec Robert Malley

IRIS - Wed, 17/12/2025 - 18:00
Pascal Boniface · Les États-Unis face à Israël. Avec Robert Malley | Entretiens géopo

Malgré la reconnaissance de l’État de Palestine par plusieurs États occidentaux depuis septembre dernier et la signature d’un accord de cessez-le-feu dans le cadre du plan de paix porté par Donald Trump, la réalité sur le terrain demeure inchangée. En Cisjordanie, l’occupation israélienne se poursuit et s’intensifie ; à Gaza, la population reste exposée à des bombardements continus. Quant à la solution à deux États, celle-ci ne semble à ce jour plus envisageable dans les termes formulés il y a quelques décennies et demande à être réinventée. Dans ce contexte, les États-Unis et les Occidentaux adoptent un positionnement contradictoire en n’imposant aucune sanction et pression à l’égard d’Israël. Comment interpréter le positionnement étasunien sur la question du conflit au Proche-Orient ? Observe-t-on des changements d’attitude de l’opinion publique face au gouvernement israélien ? Quels leviers réels existent face à un gouvernement israélien qui rejette explicitement le principe même d’un État palestinien ?

Dans ce podcast, Robert Malley, enseignant à l’université de Yale et ancien conseiller des présidents Bill Clinton et Barack Obama sur les affaires du Proche-Orient, revient sur les ambiguïtés régionales et internationales alimentant l’impasse israélo-palestinienne, les limites de la solution à deux États et l’évolution de la position étasunienne face à Israël.
