Belgian Deputy Foreign Minister Maxime Prévot, reacting to claims by his Israeli counterpart Gideon Sa'ar that Belgium is using criminal law to prosecute Jews for practicing Judaism:

"In Belgium, the judiciary is independent and makes its decisions, whether one agrees with them or not, free from any political influence... To portray those as a country’s desire to undermine the religious freedom of Jews is defamatory. This freedom has never been called into question and never will be in our country."

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.

🗨️ Translation: European diplomats say Israeli war criminals don't have to be afraid of any punishment, even it was a violation of int'l #law and the #GenevaConvention to bar the Red Cross from doing its job

🤡 #clownnews

"European diplomats in Tel Aviv said that Israeli Defense Minister Katz's decision to bar the International Committee of the Red Cross #ICRC from visiting Palestinian detainees in ISR prisons was a grave mistake and undermines international humanitarian law"

🗨️ It is bad enough, really, that after two world wars men would establish an unlawful #apartheid state; but for me, as a woman, it is morally incomprehensible that female members of the Israeli military would market the mass killing of #children to the global public as a Jewish right, rather than preventing #genocide -

Shame on every single one of them!
