"The conflict between Israel and Gaza has simply gone on too long.
When deaths are now being counted in their thousands, it is our overriding duty to ensure the fighting stops immediately.
The policy of isolation of Gaza has failed, radicalising the population who have been its first victim.
No military solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is possible.
The only possible settlement is a lasting and comprehensive peace settlement between the parties. That is why we are asking for an international conference, instigated by the Quartet and with the participation of all the stakeholders in the region, to be organised as soon as possible, on the basis of the Arab League Initiative, the previous agreement between the Israelis and Palestinians.
Meanwhile, we think that any upgrading of political relations between the EU and Israel must be strictly conditional upon respect for international humanitarian law. We therefore remained opposed to the vote in support of Israel’s increased participation in Community programmes."@en1
