EU officials demand Israel comply with ICJ order
As Israel continues to massacre Palestinian civilians across the Gaza Strip, European diplomats are finding it increasingly difficult to support the genocidal war | EU diplomats on 27 May urged Israel to comply with an order from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to “immediately halt” its offensive in Rafah, as attacks on shelters for displaced civilians have killed hundreds of Palestinians over the past three days. ● Speaking ahead of a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels, the bloc's foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said, “Everybody agrees that the rulings of the International Court of Justice are binding, and they have to be implemented.” ● These comments were echoed by German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock and her Spanish counterpart José Manuel Albares, who said the European ministers would discuss how to “take the right measures to enforce that decision.” [Editor's comment: This will take forever. These people are all bark, no bite.]
