Former European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell has strongly condemned the politico-economic bloc’s stance on Israel’s genocide against the Gaza Strip, asserting that “half of the bombs being dropped on Gaza are provided by us.”
Europe is witnessing the “biggest” ethnic cleansing since World War II aimed at building a holiday resort after the elimination of Palestinians, Borrell said after receiving the Carlos V European Award at the Yuste Monastery in Spain.
He characterized the circumstances in Gaza as “genocide” and stated that the EU, despite possessing the capability to object and put a halt to Israeli actions, is not fulfilling its responsibility to do so.
“The EU is not doing what it can. We’re facing the largest ethnic cleansing operation since the end of the Second World War in order to create a splendid holiday destination once all the millions of tons of rubble have been cleared from Gaza and the Palestinians have died or gone away,” he said.
