Lithuanian FM decries ‘cancel culture’ pushing EU to sanction Israel
Lithuania’s foreign minister on Thursday expressed scepticism over a European Commission proposal to restrict trade ties...
“The pressure in Europe is enormous,” he said.
War crime and genocide tends to create this kind of pressure. Not applying pressure would be a moral failure, doing business as usual is wrong under the circumstances.
He warned that cutting off dialogue could have long-term geopolitical consequences.
Netanyahu and its government have ignored multiple calls from multiple sources to allow more aid, minimize civilian casualities. It has damaged an EU building in Gaza.
They've demonstrated they're not listening to those calls. It's well past time to impose sanction, put real economic and diplomatic pressure.
“We need to continue talking with Israel, because, first of all, they should be interested in not completely destroying relations with Europe,” Budrys said. “This cancel culture, this wave coming from culture, sports, everywhere – to push Israel out – we will lose Israel as part of Europe. With all the geopolitical consequences, that’s a bad thing.”
I wonder if this fellow would still call it """cancel culture""" if he was the one getting bombed and starved.
"I have been unable to sleep properly for weeks after the horrors I witnessed. This is wokeness gone mad"
"Cancelling" is not even the least of consequences for a country that commits genocide.
Lapdog of the Zionist scum.
