Speaking at a press conference in Singapore ahead of the Shangri-La Dialogue security conference, French President Emmanuel Macron said that recognising a Palestinian state was a moral duty as well as a political necessity. Macron called on European countries to harden their stance on Israel unless the humanitarian crisis in the ravaged Gaza Strip improved.
Well, stop talking and start doing. Nothing is preventing you from it.
So far France has been one of the countries providing significant diplomatic cover. Among other things allowing Netanyahu to use French airspace, despite being sought with an international arrest warrant for war crimes.
So stop trading and sanction Israel, macron
And is being accused of “waging a crusade” by the Israeli far right foreign minister. An accusation about which France’s European partners have ostensibly fuck all to say.
Macron still saying and not doing anything
at least he is saying, still better than most others.
While its true that hes doing more that others, its not enough, he should be doing more
What’s been taking them so long?
He knows another refugee crisis and political consequences when he sees it.
Reaching France would mean that they left Gaza, which currently looks unlikely.
The plan, just put forward, is to relocate them to libya and jordan. That’s why their tune is changing, they know they won’t stay there.
