UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese compared the West’s outrage over aid workers in Gaza to its reaction to murdered Palestinians and accused the West of racism. Albanese says the EU should sanction the state of Israel, not just extremist settlers.
“Settlers operate as part of Israel’s expansionism over what is left of historic Palestine,” Francesca Albanese said in an online press conference, adding that “this is a state endeavor that would not happen without the active support and facilitation of the Israeli army or the Israeli state.” “Therefore, it is Israel that should be targeted with sanctions, not the settlers.”
Albanese also accuses the United States of being ‘complicit’ in the ‘genocide’ in Gaza, and harshly criticizes the sale of arms to Israel and its financial and political support.
