In a powerful statement, Belgian Member of the European Parliament Marc Botenga accused the European Union of being an accomplice in the deaths of thousands of Palestinian children. During a recent session, Botenga expressed his deep concern over the EU’s response to the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
“More than 7,700 Palestinian children have been slaughtered by Israel. When this was happening in Ukraine, you talked about genocide… It’s not about political divergence. It’s just a different way of seeing humanity,” said Botenga.
Botenga’s remarks highlight a perceived disparity in the EU’s approach to international conflicts, questioning the consistency of its humanitarian stance. His comparison to the situation in Ukraine underscores concerns about selective condemnation and the value placed on human lives in different regions.
