Watch: Left Side Of The EP Parliament House Dress In Blood Red To Protest Atrocities In Gaza
Left-wing members of the European Parliament house dressed in blood red to protest Israel’s atrocities in Gaza.
In a video received from MEP Peter Agius from EP Strasbourg at the start of the state of the European Union debate, socialists, greens and far left members can be seen wearing the colour.
According to Agius, the debate was to be dominated by Israel’s actions against Gaza.
Lovin Malta asked if he thought the debate should give significant importance to the atrocities in Gaza to which he responded, “absolutely – I expect the EU to walk the talk on our values for respect of human rights and international law and our condemnation of violence both in Ukraine and in Palestine.”
Agius also took to X to praise European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen for her strong words of support for Ukraine, “My full solidarity for the plight of the Ukrainian nation. I am also expecting von der Leyen to show equal emphasis and the condemnation of violence in Palestine.”
