The party of Conner Rousseau also calls to participate in the national demonstration this Sunday, May 11 in Brussels against the “genocide” and for the rights of the Palestinians. The appointment is set at 2 p.m. at the Gare du Nord.
Currently, nearly 5,000 people have signed the petition.
Positions divergentes
This request comes as a new resolution on Israel and Palestine is debated in Parliament and that Israel has announced its desire to occupy the coastal strip inhabited by two million people. Within the federal majority, however, there is not yet a consensus on the position to be adopted, as it was already the case under the previous legislature.
The MR, which condemns the massacres, continues to advocate a solution to two states. The Liberals refuse to recognize the state of Palestine as long as the Hamas terrorist organization control part of the band. Other parties, such as Vooruit, the CD&V and the commitments, support the recognition initiative launched by Emmanuel Macron. This recognition could be done during a UN conference “in June “said the French president in a television interview.
-This deadline placed by the French leader puts a pressure on the government of Bart de Wever. In its majority agreement, Arizona indicates that “The EU plays a leading role in achieving, by diplomatic route, to a solution to two states which guarantees both the security of Israel and allows the recognition of Palestine, while respecting territorial integrity “.
Questioned on this subject at the end of April by the VRT, the Prime Minister acknowledged that several majority partners wish to join the initiative of Macron while adding some reservations. “”It is one of the most complex conflicts in the world, with roots old in several centuries. Believing that a simple resolution of the Belgian Parliament will be enough to resolve it seems illusory to me. “
Vooruit is the only one to talk about genocide
At this stage, Vooruit is the only party of the Arizona government to use the word “genocide” to qualify the military massacres committed by Israel in the Gaza Strip. The MR firmly rejects this word. The committed and the CD&V require stricter measures against the Hebrew state, but they do not use this heavy -meaning term. The N-VA awaits the analysis of the International Criminal Court (ICC).
“My personal judgment is not relevant. We will expect what the International Criminal Court will say”replied Bart de Wever to Villa Politica. To the journalist who replied that he had already described the situation in Genocide in Ukraine, the head of government replied: “I think what Russia does in Ukraine, especially what has happened at the end, leaves little room for doubt. But concerning the conflict in the Middle East, you know that the emotions are very strong, that there is a great diversity of opinions, both in parliament and within the majority. We must therefore approach this subject with caution. “
