Abstract

The war in Gaza has brought to an end the long-standing fiction that the international community was working on toward completing the two-States project and also to the impossibility of that project ever succeeding. Therefore, Brazil has to reevaluate its historic position towards the Palestinian issue and define a new attitude. It is a challenge in terms of adherence to the values our foreign policy purports to uphold and power strategies. The war also reveals an ongoing transformation, which it helps achieve, leading to a redistribution of power worldwide. Brazil is in a relatively good position to occupy a place of greater importance, but there are challenges to be faced if it wishes to express such an ambition.
