The EU’s hypocrisy has been exposed once again

 

 

17 July 2025, AKEL C.C. Press Office, Nicosia

After the recent EU Foreign Affairs Council, the EU’s declarations of principles and values have once again been pulverized, exposing once again the hypocrisy and selective sensitivities of the EU in international politics.

Israel is committing genocide and atrocities without ending and violating every article of international law and human rights. Yet the EU refuses to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which is supposed to have respect for human rights as a fundamental element. Neither sanctions, nor an arms embargo, nor the slightest other measure is being taken by the EU to exert pressure on Israel to end its atrocities. This stand further encourages the Netanyahu regime and the Israeli war machine to intensify the massacres of civilians and children it is committing. It is confirmed that the first genocide of the 21st century has the stamp of the collective West as well.

AKEL reiterates once again – and to the Christodoulides government too – that international law itself imposes obligations on states to take measures to prevent genocide and war crimes. International law, elementary moral principles and the interests of our homeland dictate that Cyprus must be on the right side of history and not on the side of Netanyahu.
