Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni mentioned Wednesday the humanitarian state of affairs in Gaza was “ever more dramatic and unjustifiable”, stressing she had repeatedly urged Israel to discover a solution to finish the battle.
“It is a request that I renew today in the face of a humanitarian situation in Gaza that I have no difficulty in defining as increasingly dramatic and unjustifiable,” Meloni advised parliament.
Meloni’s feedback got here a day after French President Emmanuel Macron referred to as “shameful” the behaviour of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in blocking humanitarian support to Gaza.
In questions from parliament, she was pressed by an MP to sentence Netanyahu’s actions, and requested whether or not she would introduce sanctions towards Israel or recall its ambassador.
Meloni mentioned her conversations in latest months with Netanyahu had been “often difficult conversations in which I always referred to the urgency of finding a way to end the hostilities, the need to respect international law, international humanitarian law”.
She added: “We did not agree with several choices, we do not agree with the recent proposals of the Israeli government and we have not failed to say so to our interlocutors.”
She famous, nonetheless, “that it was not Israel that started the hostilities and that there was a design, as I have said several times, behind the inhuman attacks by Hamas and the cruelty directed against the hostages.”
On Tuesday, Macron mentioned that “what the government of Benjamin Netanyahu is doing is unacceptable… There is no water, no medicine, the wounded cannot get out, the doctors cannot get in. What he is doing is shameful”.
His criticism led Netanyahu on Wednesday to accuse him of siding with “a murderous Islamist terrorist organisation” and echoing “its despicable propaganda”.
“Macron is once again demanding that Israel surrender and reward terrorism,” Netanyahu mentioned in an announcement.
