"The trade agreement signed on 4 November between the European Union and Israel, which is aimed at liberalising trade in agricultural products, processed agricultural products and fish and fishery products, is unacceptable for various reasons which we will point out here. In the first place, it is unacceptable because it is aligned with neo-liberal policies that exacerbate the current economic and social crisis, especially in agriculture and fishing, but this fact becomes particularly serious when these policies are promoted through an agreement with a country that is violating international law and the most basic rights of the Palestinian people; a country which does not respect its obligations as agreed in the roadmap for peace, keeping Gaza under siege, building more settlements, continuing to build the wall and expelling Palestinians from Jerusalem. This is a country that is continuing to escalate the violation of human rights and international humanitarian laws. We denounce and condemn the signing of this agreement, which will include the trade of products from Israeli settlements in Palestinian territories, highlighting the European Union’s undeniable and unacceptable complicity with Israel in the face of the serious violations I have just described. We wish to voice our complete solidarity with the Palestinian people here, and stand up for their right to build a free, independent and sovereign state."@en1
