Because you actually need an innovative economy to create projects worth funding. In Bulgaria we can't even get the post offices to accept card payments and universities still need you to go apply in person. Why would we be getting that money? So another crook can build a villa under the guise of an "eco-house concept" because he slapped a solar panel on top?
Why Israel tho? If the funding is completely agnostic to the country of origin, you might as well pump that money into projects in South Korea or Canada, no?
Because South Korea and Taiwan never applied to be part of the program, while Israel did. Canada actually joined parts of the program this year as well.
I love how I'm getting downvoted for asking a question and how you're not even mentioning which program you're talking about (which wasn't mentioned in the post or anywhere in this specific comment chain). I googled it myself eventually. The program is Horizon Europe and none of you mfers thought it necessary to mention it a single time for whatever reason.
