In a groundbreaking decision, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) has declared the presence of the Zionist regime in the occupied Palestinian territories illegal. Irish Prime Minister, Harris, emphasized the importance of EU countries reviewing their trade agreements with Israel based on this ruling. He stated that all countries are obligated to help end the illegal occupation of Palestinian territories.
Ireland stands out among EU member states advocating for human rights in Gaza. Harris announced that Ireland will unilaterally suspend trade with Israel on products from the occupied West Bank following the ICJ advisory opinion. He also condemned the recent attacks by Israel on UN peacekeeping forces in southern Lebanon, stressing the need for respect for international laws.
Harris’s proactive approach showcases Ireland’s commitment to upholding justice and supporting the Palestinian cause. The EU-Persian Gulf Cooperation Council summit will further address these critical issues of international significance.
