Czy UE może przezwyciężyć różnice zdań w sprawie sankcji wobec Izraela?  Przewodnicząca Komisji Europejskiej po raz pierwszy zaproponowała podjęcie środków wobec Izraela w związku z pogarszającą się sytuacją humanitarną w Strefie Gazy.

00:35The European Commission's proposed package of sanctions against Israel

00:40is the topic of this episode of EU Decoded.

00:43The proposed package of sanctions to be imposed on Israel by the European Commission

00:48includes suspending the trade component of the EU-Israel Association Agreement

00:53and reinstating tariffs that would correspond to an additional annual cost

00:57of 227 million euros for Israeli exports,

01:03halting transfers from the EU budget to the bilateral cooperation program

01:07amounting to 6 million euros per year scheduled for 2026 and 2027,

01:13freezing approximately 14 million euros earmarked for ongoing projects

01:18within the scope of EU-Israeli cooperation.

01:21Ursula von der Leyen's announcement comes just a few weeks

01:25before the second anniversary of the Gaza Wall.

01:28Following a string of attacks carried out by the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas

01:33on 7 octobre 2023,

01:36Israel launched a large military operation in the Gaza Strip.

01:40Let's hear what Europeans think of the Commission's proposal.

01:43We need to be aware of the humanitarian situation

01:48that is a dramatic situation that is happening in Gaza,

01:50but I do not think it is a measure against Israel

01:52or against the Israelis in general.

01:54I doubt that it is sufficient as a measure.

01:57It would be good to see, maybe more large,

02:00to prevent them from having arms.

02:02Die Frage ist ja, was schwächt Netanyahu wirklich als Machthaber

02:07und in seiner Möglichkeit irgendwie seine Entscheidungen?

02:12Müssen wir auch mit und trotz unserer Geschichte

02:17auf das reagieren, was in Gaza passiert?

02:21Und es sind zigtausende Menschen, die sterben.

02:23Iran-News reporter Maya de la Bohm

02:25has been covering this issue.

02:28Hamas still holds around 50 of the 250 hostage it captured

02:32and Israel's military operation in Gaza

02:36killed almost more than 64,000 people.

02:40What prompts Ursula von der Leyen's decision

02:43to make this announcement almost two years into the war?

02:47I think there is a climax right now in terms of pressure.

02:51You have the United Nations on one side saying

02:54that there is a famine in the Gaza Strip.

02:57There is pressure from everybody, from NGOs, from countries.

03:01Everybody is telling Europe needs to act.

03:05And Europe is not acting.

03:07And there is one other factor I think is very important

03:09is that Ursula von der Leyen is German.

03:11And it's very important because Germany has been so far

03:15blocking any possibility for the EU

03:18to really come up with sanctions against Israel.

03:20Indeed, in her announcement to Ursula von der Leyen

03:24acknowledged that it would be difficult

03:27to get everyone on board to approve these sanctions.

03:31What is the situation among member states?

03:34To be honest, divisions are very, very deep in Europe.

03:37So you have on one side all of the countries

03:39who want to go forward with sanctions,

03:42who think that Palestine has a right to be a state.

03:46They believe in the two-state solution

03:47and they want more action.

03:49And on the other side, you have all of the countries

03:52which also have historical ties with Israel.

03:56And I'm thinking about Germany, but not just Germany.

03:58Austria, I'm thinking also about Czech Republic.

04:00All these countries that are keen to preserve

04:03their sacrosanct link with Israel.

04:08Well, thinking that they might be able

04:11to overcome that division,

04:14what would be the impact on Israel

04:17of approving sanctions, notably the suspension

04:20of the trade component in the association agreement?

04:23Because the EU and Israel are close partners.

04:27These trade components require qualified majority.

04:30And as you know, in the EU,

04:32qualified majority is a complex issue

04:33because you need large countries like Germany,

04:35like Italy, to agree and to vote for these sanctions.

04:39So if ever this happened,

04:41it would be, I would say,

04:42the end of a free trade agreement

04:44between the bloc and Israel.

04:47So concretely, it would mean maybe, you know,

04:50tariffs, custom duties,

04:52something that Israel never had with the EU.

04:55The measures include sanctions

04:57against two far-right Israeli ministers,

04:59Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smodryk,

05:02for inciting hatred.

05:03Sanctions will also be imposed on violent settlers

05:06who caused destruction in the West Bank.

05:08Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar

05:11reacted to the European Commission's announcement

05:13by saying it was unacceptable behavior between partners.

05:17This month, the European Parliament

05:19adopted a resolution calling for measures

05:21to end this conflict.

05:23We heard the views of two MEPs.

05:25It's the wrong moment because we have seen

05:31and we also said in our resolution

05:33that there was an improvement

05:34of the humanitarian situation.

05:36And I would like to have rather

05:38conditioned suspension

05:41or an incentivation of Israel

05:44than a punishing.

05:45It is a question that all of us

05:46are scratching our heads

05:47as to why there hasn't been any measures

05:50at all taken against Israel.

05:52And I do believe that

05:54if we had had measures earlier,

05:56I think that that would have sent

05:57a very strong message

05:58and would have probably saved thousands of lives

06:01if the EU had have acted earlier.

06:02We have to make sure

06:10that this new state of Palestine

06:13recognizes the right of existence of Israel

06:17because this is the main problem in the region

06:19and that it doesn't harbor terrorists

06:22because we see actually also,

06:24I see also a little bit naive

06:26a trust in the Palestinian authority.

06:29We see that they still pay terrorists

06:31for their deeds.

06:32I think the European Union

06:33should recognize the state of Palestine.

06:36But for me, you know,

06:37the key priority has to be

06:39to stop the killing.

06:40It has to be to get the aid in

06:42and the medicine into the people of Gaza

06:44because we need a Palestine

06:46of Palestinians in order to have a state.

06:49I think we should be very careful also

06:56with, you know,

06:58with the terms like genocide,

07:00human rights violations,

07:02war crimes in addition.

07:04And I have the firm belief

07:06that we should leave this

07:06to the international courts

07:08to decide about it

07:09and we should concentrate.

07:11And I think there's a big agreement on that

07:13to improve the humanitarian situation.

07:15It's so obvious

07:17that there's a double standard

07:19when it came to the treatment of Russia

07:20and nobody objected.

07:22You know, I agreed

07:23that sanctions needs to be taken.

07:24It's an illegal occupation.

07:26But to then not do anything whatsoever

07:29in relation to the actions of Israel

07:32has just, I think,

07:34really damaged the European Union

07:35among citizens living within the EU.

07:39The European Union

07:40has historically advocated

07:41for the two-state solution

07:44with Palestine and Israel

07:45coexisting peacefully.

07:48Only 10 of the 27 EU member states

07:50have recognized Palestinian sovereignty.

07:53It remains to be seen

07:54whether Europe can act as the bloc

07:56to resolve the conflict.
