EU terror-list move shows Israel bias – Hamas
Hamas slams as “immoral” an EU appeal to keep it on the bloc’s terror blacklist, a month after a European court ordered its removal.
“The European Union’s insistence on keeping Hamas on the list of terrorist organizations is an immoral step, and reflects the EU’s total bias in favor of the Israeli occupation,” Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri tells AFP.
“It provides it (Israel) with the cover for its crimes against the Palestinian people,” adds Abu Zuhri.
