Varsen Aghabekian, the Palestinian Authority's foreign affairs minister, criticized the EU's inaction against Israel for its violations in Gaza and the West Bank, describing it as 'shocking and disappointing.' Despite an EU report indicating Israel's breaches of human rights, EU foreign ministers failed to agree on any measures. Aghabekian highlighted the ongoing atrocities in Gaza, including the killing of civilians and the dire humanitarian situation, while noting the EU's historical divisions that hinder a unified foreign policy.
