The EU likes to think of itself as a normative power – a community of values, committed to upholding international law, promoting peace, protecting civilians, and building a rules-based global order. These are not just lofty ideals; they are enshrined in EU treaties and Council conclusions.

#Europe’s image as a principled, reliable, and rules-based actor is being destroyed – not by autocratic #Russia and #China, or other adversaries with dictatorial regimes, but by its own refusal to enforce international law when the perpetrator is an ally.

At the heart of this disgraceful paralysis are governments that have chosen to side with impunity. The #EU spoiler governments are not acting in the interest of peace between #Israel and #Palestine. They are undermining European unity and damaging the EU’s global credibility and partnerships. They are also complicit in prolonging the suffering of millions of Palestinians, endangering Israel’s security.

The EU’s inaction is not just a strategic blunder – it is an appalling moral failure as it enables Israel’s impunity and entrenches a conflict that will continue to fuel instability, radicalisation, and despair for generations in the #MiddleEast.

@rzeta0 @_Wiesenthal_S_ because Europe doesn't enforce its own rules to people with money. https://todon.nl/@prolrage/114985637913145616
But when humans, who never committed a crime, arrive in #europe without shoes and money they immediately being criminalised and the inhuman laws directly apply on them.
The #doublestandards are always there to destroy the sense of "liberal" Europe.

#Eu is actual perpetrator of #gazagenocide.

"#Germany and #Italy prefer to continue #genocide and #IsraelApartheid".

Gathered online for their regular Mashreq/Maghreb Working Party and despite mounting pressure on Israel over the hunger crisis in #Gaza, the 27 EU diplomats still couldn’t reach any qualified majority on a European Commission proposal to cut #Israel from partial access to the EU's €95 billion Horizon Europe research fund.

“The situation has not changed,” one EU diplomat said, referring to a formal meeting of #EU ambassadors last week which also failed to agree to the Commission’s proposal. The diplomat said the issue was now in the hands of the EU’s foreign affairs ministers, who will meet informally on 29 August.

"The refusal of certain member states to take even this smallest possible step to pressure Israel, while civilians continue to be killed and starved in Gaza, is absolutely incriminating,” said Martin Konecny, who heads the European Middle East Project in Brussels.

Nothing can describe the support of #EuropeanUnion for the #genocide #IsraelTerroristState commits in #Gaza. Nothing.

The famous double standards of #Europe.

How European Ministers came from "review trade ties" to "keep a close watch on Israel’s compliance with a recent agreement to improve humanitarian aid access into Gaza."???

"Member states were presented with 10 options, including:

Full suspension of the agreement.
The EU suspension of its preferential trade and/or research pillars.
An arms embargo.
Sanctions on Israeli ministers.
Halting visa-free travel for Israeli citizens to the #EU.
Banning trade with Israeli #settlements.
However, none of the options gathered the necessary support during the meeting.

Reacting to the decision, Amnesty International’s secretary general Agnès Callamard said: “The EU’s refusal to suspend its agreement with #Israel is a cruel and unlawful betrayal of the European project and vision, predicated on upholding international law and fighting authoritarian practices, of the European Union’s own rules and of the human rights of Palestinians."

The #Palestinian Authority’s (PA) minister for foreign affairs, Varsen Aghabekian Shahin, described as “shocking and disappointing” the European Union’s refusal to act against Israel for violations in #Gaza and the #WestBank.

@GottaLaff Wow can I try that with my taxes?

I bet they don’t look too kindly on that!

If we truly care about protecting women and children, let’s hold everyone accountable, not just those who look or sound different.
