Francesca Albanese supports the petition launched by Il Fatto Quotidiano: “The Meloni government should lift its veto on sanctions against Israel.”
The Meloni government should lift the veto.” Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories, supports the petition launched by Il Fatto Quotidiano on the IoScelgo platform to ask Italy not to oppose further European sanctions against Israel and the suspension of the Association Agreement between the European Union and Israel. It is not a symbolic move; Israel is a small country, and sanctions for Albanese would be an effective tool to stop Israeli violence: “Suspending the trade agreement can help to stop the aggression that is being carried out not only against Palestinians, but also against Lebanon and other countries in the region.”
The Association Agreement with the European Union, recalls Albanese, is the framework that makes the EU “Israel’s first trading partner.” Suspending it does not mean, she clarifies, denying the right to security: “What Israel is doing is not protecting itself, but endangering the lives of other people and other peoples.” From this, support for the Il Fatto’s request: that Italy stop using its political weight to prevent a measure that, according to Albanese, would be consistent with international law and with the same European law, which provides for a suspension clause in the event of a violation of human rights.
The Rapporteur also rejects the hypocritical and surreal distinction between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ in the extremist government of Netanyahu, with Ben Gvir isolated as a scapegoat: “It’s not that while Netanyahu was giving certain instructions the rest of the government opposed, it’s not that while the government advanced the Parliament rebelled.” The case of the death penalty for Palestinians, she recalls to ilfattoquotidiano.it, shows a much broader political consensus than what is reported by Israel’s bellicistic propaganda.
In Israel, says Albanese, the discrimination against Palestinians is not just a part of the right-wing government, but is a social, cultural, media, and institutional problem. “It’s the fifth report that I write on genocide, it’s the eighth report at the end of the eighth investigation that I conduct as Special Rapporteur, and I can confirm that Israel continues to invoke the right to torture Palestinians,” in prisons and through a regime of life “unsustainable, unbearable.”
Albanese also holds universities, the Israeli judiciary, and media accountable. She asks where the opposition to genocide was, who defended the freedom of expression of Israelis opposed to apartheid and war, who broke the “360-degree communication” that for over two years fueled hatred, discrimination, and dehumanization of Palestinians, even thanks to the collaboration of many politicians and media outlets, also in Italy.
For this reason, she says, those who continue to talk about “the right to self-defense,” after two and a half years of massacres in Gaza and the West Bank, if it is in good faith is poorly informed. From this, support also for the Il Fatto petition, that does not use Ben Gvir as a expendable extremist and that removes the Italian veto on the suspension of the EU-Israel agreement.
