Sánchez in a speech to the gathering demanded a “humanitarian cease-fire” in Gaza, where Israel’s retaliatory strikes and ground invasion have claimed some 11,000 lives, including women and children, since the country suffered an attack last month by Hamas militants who killed 1,400 people and took 240 hostages.
By the time the EU-level Party of European Socialists (PES) published its “final” resolution on Friday there was no mention of the Israel-Hamas war because national delegations failed to agree on the wording.
It wasn’t until after party leaders, including Scholz and Sánchez, had dined Friday evening, and the PES leadership met early Saturday, that the wording was agreed and retroactively added to the resolution.
We call firmly for humanitarian pauses to achieve the provision of basic necessities such as water, food, electricity, fuel and medical supplies,” the final wording stated.
Javi López, a Spanish Socialist MEP from Catalonia, said the choice to call for pauses rather than a cease-fire in the final text was a “compromise” and a “concession” to the German Social Democrats.
Filibeck said there was unanimous agreement among national parties to condemn Hamas, to support Israel’s right to self-defense, to stop the suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza, to hold an international peace conference and to work toward a two-state solution.
