That is different than ‘funding genocidal technologies’ that you previously stated though: the grants specifically target civilian (not military) applications, albeit, some technologies may be dual use. It is not like the money is used for murder machines. Nevertheless, disassociating may be a good idea due to these dual use applications.
Some of the money got granted to IBM, who helped the IDF create Where’s daddy, Lavender and other “targeted” bombing systems.
I doubt the IEC accelerator will fund IBM, as it only funds start-ups and SMEs (small businesses?). They might have gotten Horizon Europe funding, but that generally comes with very strict reporting requirements. You should be able to find the project here if that were the case.
That said, we don’t have much business funding IBM, they have sufficient money from their previous ‘ventures’.
Indeed it seems to be some other program under Horyzon.
Still though. The UE removed funding for british researchers during Brexit. That was a bad idea. The UK voted for a political decision, they didn’t commit war crime.
On the other side, we should not have business with israel at all.
They did that because we, unfortunately, chose to stop participating in Horizon Europe. It wasn’t a punishment levelled at the UK by the EU, it was the UK removing itself. We have since rejoined
I cannot remember if this was this specific program but I remember thinking the EU cutting off funding for individual searchers in the netherlands just because they were british. Found that kinda harsh
That whole’s mess was sad anyway. Britties they have their flaws but they’re our friends. My grandgrandpa hid one guy falling from the sky during ww2. Gave him to the resistance. He always hoped the guy survived lol
Hell yeah to your great grandpa, that’s cool!
yea, especially the part where he didn’t know anything. He had given the guy a note with his address (to reconnect after the war) and when the handler knew he left the room running. Not the best idea lol
I can basically guarantee that this was a consequence of the British government’s total failure to negotiate a meaningful exit deal and not the EU trying to get some kind of revenge. That government was a fucking disaster that couldn’t even agree with itself on which version of its self-contradicting wishlist it wanted to go for
Yea trust me I remember bojo the clown. I was in britain actually during that time, because macron had blocked the eurostar.
I’m belgian, I don’t like the UE either for different reasons, everybody was shitty during that time imo.
I enjoyed my time there a lot though.
