Michel praises Greece, Cyprus and France for their assistance in providing humanitarian aid to Gaza

Greece, Cyprus and France were praised by the president of the European Council, Charles Michelfor their efforts in providing humanitarian aid to Gauze.

We support Israel’s right to defend itself and it must do so in accordance with international humanitarian law. The EU firmly defends the protection of citizens’ lives. The life of every civilian matters, always and everywhere,” said Mr. Michel while speaking at the European Parliament in Brussels.

He pointed out that a total siege is not in accordance with international law. “We ask humanitarian pauses and corridors in Gazabecause humanitarian aid must urgently reach those in need,” underlined Mr. Michel.

Additionally, Charles Michel noted that “the more the situation worsens, the more difficult it will be to work for a lasting peace in the future. Every hour that passes, more lives are destroyed, more families are torn apart.”

“We are working to help alleviate the pain. I particularly commend France, Greece, Cyprus and some others for their concrete actions, such as a naval hospital and a sea corridor. At the meeting in Paris tomorrow we will discuss and decide on more support,” the president of the European Council said.

Finally, Mr. Michel said that the EU can help the Middle East, while at the same time it will continue its strong support to Ukraine for as long as necessary.
