La deriva moral de la Unió Europea

La Unió Europea alerta contínuament del deteriorament del panorama de seguretat global, però, alhora, s’allunya de la seva narrativa emancipadora de la seguretat humana. Darrerament, el discurs dels màxims representants de la UE, a banda d’alarmista i agressiu, sembla relegar els compromisos històrics amb els drets humans, l’ajuda humanitària, el desenvolupament i la pau.

Yet there is no indication that the review will lead to a change in the European position on Israel.
