The European Union’s High Representative for Foreign Policy, Josep Borrell, warned on Saturday that “a strategy that ignores the human costs will not work and will make peace impossible” in Israel and Palestine.
“The way Israel defends itself is important,” he emphasized in a video message to the European Socialist Party congress in Malaga, Spain, quoted by the Spanish news agency EFE.
It should be possible for the head of community diplomacy to criticize the Israeli government without being classified as ‘anti-Semitic’.
Josep Borrell believed that the situation in Gaza “is a consequence of a political and moral failure of the international community” and that the solution will involve “three no’s and three yes’s”.
“No to the return of the Islamic group Hamas to Gaza, no to the reoccupation of Gaza by Israel and no to the dissociation of the solution for Gaza from the rest of the Palestinian problem as a whole.”
On the other hand, the High Representative of the European Union says yes to “the installation of a provisional Palestinian authority in Gaza”, “yes to the involvement of the Arab states” and “yes to greater EU involvement in the region” .
After a 35-day war that began on October 7 with Hamas’s attack on Israeli territory that killed more than 1,400 people and kidnapped more than 240 from villages near Gaza, Israeli bombings have killed more than 11,000 people and approximately 27,500 people injured. , according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, controlled by the Islamist group.
Hamas is classified as a terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union and Israel.
