EU boss Ursula von der Leyen this morning said Europe stands with Israel in this dark moment. She was speaking in the European Parliament during a debate on the recent Hamas attacks on Israelis.
President von der Leyen was strongly criticised for not calling on Israel to conform with international law in its response to the attacks, during her recent visit there. She told MEPs “only if we acknowledge Israel’s pain and its right to defend itself, will we have the credibility to say that Israel should react as a democracy in line with international humanitarian law.”
