French President Emmanuel Macron says Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s policy regarding humanitarian aid to Gaza is shameful, and that Europeans should consider increasing sanctions.
“What he’s doing is shameful,” Macron says during an interview on TF1 television.
“My job is to do everything I can to make it stop,” he says, adding that the possibility of revisiting the European Union’s cooperation agreements with Israel is on the table.
These pacts include terms that include the absence of customs duties on certain products.
Israel has sealed off the Gaza Strip since early March, when it resumed its military campaign against terror group Hamas following the collapse of a ceasefire deal, during which thousands of aid trucks entered the enclave.
