Resolution on Gaza at breaking point: EU action to combat famine, the urgent need to release hostages and move towards a two-state solution
The resolution adopted by the European Parliament represents a significant step forward in ensuring that the European Union takes stronger action to stop the massacre in the Gaza Strip. For the first time, it supports measures more robust than those previously adopted by the European Commission: extending sanctions against Israeli settlers and ministers, partially suspending the EU–Israel Association Agreement, and freezing EU funds to Israel. Furthermore, the text condemns Israel’s obstruction of humanitarian aid and calls on Member States to align with the common position to prevent arms exports, advance the recognition of the State of Palestine, and comply with arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court. However, the adoption of amendments and separate votes has weakened the text by removing explicit references to genocide and to the famine caused by Israel’s actions. It also falls short in demanding tougher sanctions and the full suspension of the association agreement, while including unverified claims used by Israel to justify its attacks. For these reasons, and despite not sharing multiple points and assertions in the text, we did not wish to block the progress it contains.
The Commission’s 2024 Rule of Law report
Ni la amnistía ni el indulto rompen la separación de poderes, al contrario: son mecanismos reconocidos en cualquier Estado democrático de Derecho; mecanismos que forman parte del equilibrio entre poderes, que permiten a la política reparar, corregir o superar conflictos que la vía judicial, por sí sola, no puede resolver. La amnistía no es impunidad, es una apuesta por cerrar heridas, por pasar página de una etapa de judicialización del conflicto que nunca debió llegar tan lejos; no es la negación del Estado de Derecho, es su continuidad por otros medios, como lo fue en 1977 y como lo ha sido en muchos países europeos. Y lo mismo ocurre con los indultos: están previstos en la Constitución. Los concede el Ejecutivo, sí, pero sobre condenas impuestas por el Judicial. Se trata, precisamente, de una expresión legítima del poder político, dentro del marco legal, y como parte de su función de garantizar la convivencia y el interés general. Quiero aclarar que apoyamos el resto del informe de la Comisión sobre el Estado de Derecho en 2024, salvo el párrafo 5.
