The chef of the deputy of LFI, Mathilde Panot, called Emmanuel Macron on Friday to expel Israel’s ambassador to France after the interception by the Israeli flotilla for Gaza.
“This is the third time that French citizens, including parliamentarians, have been arrested, illegally kidnapped and imprisoned,” denounced in RTL Mathilde Panot, who “solemnly asks the President of the Republic to expel the ambassador of the state of Israel,” Joshua Zarka.
A final ship in the International Aid Flotilla for Gaza continued its way early Friday, according to the organizers, after the interception of about forty ships by Israel, which is preparing to expel the proportive activists who travel on board. Several deputies of MEP and LFI were in flotilla boats.
“Representative of a State that commits a genocide”
In June and July, the Israeli Navy had already arrested two sailboats who were going to Gaza, with Swedish activist Greta Thunberg and the Eurodiputa Lfi Rima Hassan on board. Both landed in Israel and then expelled.
Mathilde Panot called Emmanuel Macron to imitate Colombian president Gustavo Petro, who expelled the Israeli diplomatic delegation on Wednesday in his country.
“It is not possible to admit more in our territory the representative of a State that commits a genocide and insults the President of the Republic as the fact that Mr. Netanyahu, which, as a result, insults the entire French people,” he said.
