"Mr President, we returned last week from Palestine where we in the Committee on Development were fortunate enough to see the current situation both in the West Bank and in the Gaza Strip. The Gaza Strip has reached crisis point. What was once an open jail is now the scene of a catastrophe because the Israeli authorities have decided to ban imports. Hospitals, for instance, have medicines but no spare parts for their equipment. Roads are piled with rubbish and there is a danger of tanks overflowing with effluent. In short, the humanitarian situation is desperate. People in Gaza are living on the breadline; the difference between the two Palestinian territories is beginning to become obvious. We as a Parliament must therefore take action to free Gaza from its isolation and to bring about a sustainable solution based on the needs of a whole nation rather than those of the inhabitants of one side."@en1
