Guidance recently issued by the European Commission relating to European Union funding for projects in Israel and the so-called ¡°disputed territories¡± makes it clear that it is open to any Israeli institution whose ¡°legal address¡± is within the 1949 armistice line (the ¡°Green Line¡±) to apply for funding in respect of projects located anywhere in the territories (¡°Horizon 2020 rules may see Israel pass up research cash¡±, News, 5 September).

I myself have received such an assurance from the Commission.
