The European Union is an "institution that tolerates two types of Jews: those willing to undermine Israel, and dead Jews," Israel's Minister of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism, Amichai Chikli told Euronews in an exclusive interview, days after the European Commission proposed sanctions on Israel for its ongoing military assault in Gaza.
During her annual State of the Union address last week, European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen said that the EU would suspend "bilateral support" for Israel and partially suspend a trade deal in response to what she called a "man-made famine" in Gaza and "a clear attempt" by Israel to "undermine the two-state solution."
