EU Commission: "The Israeli government's decision to advance the illegal E1 settlement project is unacceptable." Israel, the very same day: announces plans to nearly triple E1's size. Time for a settlement trade ban, not another statement, @vonderleyen https://t.co/Mmv9JDEbyG #E1Settlement #Israel #EUCommission #EU #IL
UN Fact-Finding Mission: beyond the crimes during Iran's Jan. crackdown, there are grounds to believe the US committed war crimes in Iran. Will EU states that offered the US access to territory, infrastructure, and airspace turn out complicit in these? https://t.co/P80lV31RGC #Iran #WarCrimes #HumanRights #IR #US #EU
Silent on Saudi and UAE proxies in Yemen. Indulgent toward the US war on Iran. Absent from ongoing diplomatic initiatives. Von der Leyen's selective, ahistorical approach either signals Europe's growing irrelevance or reveals its submission to interests that aren't its own. #Europe #ForeignPolicy #MiddleEast #SA #AE #US #IR
Next week, the European Parliament will vote on the "Defence Omnibus" legislative package. In the name of simplification and defense, these laws will kill by dumping more forever chemicals and toxic substances into our water, soil, and air. We say no. https://t.co/4C3zJD7KYp #DefenceOmnibus #ToxicChemicals #EnvironmentalProtection #EU
Good talk with @MarwaLHC on Sudan and on how and why EU Member States still play a detrimental role in this horrible war. Spoiler: it's about resources, plunder and neocolonialism. The future of Africa will be decided in Africa. https://t.co/g3rid25tth #Sudan #Neocolonialism #Africa #SD #EU
American imperialism is confirmed as the greatest danger to peace and stability in the world. Rather than living in denial, or hoping to pick up the crumbs, Europe must invest in multilateralism to stop this spiral. (translated)
Trade with illegal Israeli colonies is itself illegal and should have been banned for decades. 12 countries are finally sending this signal. The result of years of struggle. May the Commission🇪🇺 keep its word and propose it at the European level. (translated)
The unbearable image of the dismembered body of Wafa, 8 years old, is circulating everywhere. A child massacred yesterday in Gaza by the Israeli army, funded and armed by European countries. Today, these same countries remain silent. By offering impunity to their allies, they are burying humanity. (translated)
Ukraine: the prospect of negotiations is excellent news. Gas crisis, winter... a ceasefire would be in the direct interest of Europeans. Yet it is India and the USA who are maneuvering. Europe should quickly move away from its unilateral military logic. (translated)
Gas stocks at their lowest in 15 years. Prices are breaking records. Urgent measures are needed. The Commission must now present its proposal for taxing windfall profits. European diplomacy must urge Washington to stop its war against Iran. (translated)
Israel is annexing the West Bank. States need to ban trade with settlements. The Financial Times editorial board as well spells out EU and Member States minimal (legal) obligations. Today's meeting needs to address this. https://t.co/G6mJe1ivVn #Israel #WestBank #TradeSanctions #IL #EU
Last night, the United States allegedly struck a wedding in Sirik, in southern Iran. Among the victims: a small child. Where are the European condemnations? The calls for an investigation? Why look the other way in the face of the crimes of 'our allies'? (translated)
The US wages an illegal war of aggression on Iran. EU citizens pay too, in rising energy costs. Yet, the EU pledges to work with the US to pressure... Iran. Including through "Operation Economic Outcast." We need diplomacy, not self-harming complicity. https://t.co/W85BNKWjbO #StopWar #DiplomacyFirst #NoSanctions #US #IR #EU
Absurd. Europe is burning - and its governments, which find billions for armaments, are reducing the number of firefighters. For the @etuc_ces, @EstherLynchs points to the EU's budgetary rules. It is time to reverse priorities. (translated)
From Cuba to Iran, Washington's economic war aims at the collapse of entire societies. Targeting living conditions, including access to food, electricity, and medicine, should bring those responsible to international criminal accountability. (translated)
Critique in words, complicit in actions. After almost 3 years of genocide in Gaza, Europe remains the top market for Israeli arms. Their best selling point? "Combat tested." Translation: tested on Palestinian children. A cynicism that kills. (translated)
The EU in 2025 🔥 -18,200 firefighters 💰 €418 billion in military spending As a reminder, 1 F-35 aircraft = 70 firefighter careers funded. Fewer firefighters, but always more weapons. This is not a budgetary choice, it is a political choice. (translated)
Marcinelle, August 8, 1956. 262 dead. 70 years later, we forget nothing. No one should die at work. (translated)
300 days of "ceasefire" in #Gaza. 300 children killed. At least. One per day. Minimum. The genocide continues. European support for Israeli crimes too. (translated)
The UN human rights experts condemn the measures of the USA against Cuba. Contrary to international law, these measures target health, food, and human development for political purposes. These measures must be revoked immediately. (translated)
