Human Rights Watch (HRW) says European Union representatives meeting Israeli officials at the EU-Israel Association Council meeting in Brussels on Monday should use the opportunity to condemn Israel’s atrocity crimes, Al Jazeera reports.
“There can be no business as usual with a government responsible for crimes against humanity, including apartheid, and acts of genocide, and whose sitting prime minister is wanted for atrocity crimes by the International Criminal Court,” said Claudio Francavilla, associate EU director at HRW.
“The only purpose of this Association Council meeting should be to call out those crimes and to announce long-overdue measures in response,” Francavilla added.
