Also known as: ELNET Europe

Summary

A European-Israeli policy network fostering EU-Israel diplomatic and security cooperation.

Definition

ELNET is a European policy network that fosters diplomatic, security, and economic cooperation between European nations and Israel. It operates across multiple European capitals, cultivating relationships with parliamentarians and policymakers to advance pro-Israel positions within EU institutions.

Background & History

ELNET is a European policy network that fosters diplomatic, security, and economic cooperation between European nations and Israel. Founded to serve as the European equivalent of AIPAC, ELNET has been described as 'AIPAC for Europe' due to its focus on cultivating relationships with European parliamentarians and policymakers. The organization operates offices across multiple European capitals including Germany, France, and the UK, building a continent-wide infrastructure for pro-Israel influence within EU institutions and national governments.

Operational Role in the Network

ELNET functions as the European parliamentary capture mechanism within the control network, cultivating relationships with European lawmakers to advance pro-Israel positions within EU institutions and national legislatures. It operates a continent-wide network of offices in Germany, France, and the UK, coordinating policy advocacy and parliamentary engagement across multiple jurisdictions. ELNET's €150M Bundestag deal demonstrates its capacity to secure large-scale governmental commitments, while its multi-country presence ensures bipartisan pro-Israel influence across European political systems.
