"Madam President, the Middle East peace process and the two—state solution has been suffocated. It is buried alive under the concrete slabs of thousands of illegal Israeli settlements. They are war crimes under the Fourth Geneva Convention. These settlements are an absolute outrage. Every time Israel announces new settlements or demolishes more Palestinian homes, the international community just wags its finger and the EU merely condemns. The recent UN Security Council resolution 2334 was without doubt an improvement. But Israel says ‘take a hike’, more or less, and increases the rate of illegal settlements and land theft. Israel must be stopped from acting with impunity. When Member States breach EU law, they are faced with sanctions and infraction proceedings, but when Israel breaches EU law, it does not face sanctions. We must suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which is predicated on EU law, and Member States must implement the labelling guidelines for settlement goods."@en1
