EU envoy dressed down over bloc’s aid policy vis-à-vis Palestinian terror supporters
Emanuelle Giaufret, the EU’s ambassador to Israel, is summoned to the Foreign Ministry for an official rebuke after the bloc said Palestinians with terror ties are not automatically prevented from participating in EU programs.
“We demand the European Union immediately cease all support, financially or otherwise, for any element that supports terror directly or indirectly. As past experience teaches, terror is terror and any assistance to terror will bring more terror,” Foreign Minister Israel Katz is quoted saying in a ministry statement.
