Simon Harris: EU must reconsider agreement with Israel

There must be a review the EU-Israel Association Agreement signed between the European Union (EU) and Israel.

Axar.az reports this was stated by Simon Harris, Deputy Prime Minister of Ireland, Minister for Foreign Affairs, Trade and Minister for Defence.

"The EU-Israel Association Agreement has clauses on human rights. It says relations shall be based on respect for human rights. These words must have meaning. There must be a review of the agreement. The world is not doing nearly enough. The EU must show leadership.

I intend to pursue this with European colleagues. We are duty bound to do everything possible to bring about a cessation of violence, a major surge of humanitarian aid and the immediate release of all hostages," he wrote on X.
