French President Emmanuel Macron spoke in favor of stopping the supply of weapons to Israel to attack the Gaza Strip, like France, and said that “we do not fight terrorism by sacrificing the civilian population”“.
“I think that today, the priority is that we return to a political solution, that we stop sending weapons (to Israel) to carry out the fighting in Gaza. France is not doing that,” he said. declared Macron, in an interview broadcast this Tuesday. Saturday on the radio France Inter.
Macron did not mention countries that must stop selling weapons to the Jewish state, but the United States appears, by far, as the main supplier. The French president warned that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had ignored the international community.
“I think we are not being listened to. “I have already said this to Prime Minister Netanyahu and I think it is a mistake, also a mistake for the security of Israel, because we see in public opinion in the region a resentment that is being born” , he wrote.
The president indicated that the objective is “avoid climbing” in the region and once again insisted that “Lebanon cannot become a new Gaza”.
