"The MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece will not be voting for the report because it maintains that the 'Road Map' is the ultimate and only solution for de-escalation in the Middle East. However, Israel, emboldened by the undivided support of the USA and the collusion of the ΕU, is violating every agreement, is stepping up the criminal policy of genocide against the Palestinian people, is continuing to colonise Palestinian territories and erect the Fascist-inspired wall to divide Palestine and turn it into a ghetto. If the erection of this wall is ultimately completed, it will annex 58% of the land on the West Bank, trapping 600 000 Palestinians and the most fertile land. In other words, it will objectively destroy every possibility of founding an independent Palestinian state. This ambition on the part of Israel is absolutely in keeping with plans of US imperialism in the Middle East, of which Israel is the long arm. On the pretext of the anti-terrorism campaign, the EU is also signing up to support for Israel, despite any intra-imperialist antagonisms. The report being debated, despite any good proposals by the rapporteur, who is trying to appear 'objective', basically sits squarely on the fence. In an endeavour to appease the invader, it objectively emboldens it. We absolutely stand by the Palestinian people fighting for an independent state and, at the same time, by the forces of Israel opposing Sharon's criminal policy, understanding that, without a Palestinian state, there can be no Israeli state."@en1
