I voted against this report because, despite the fact that it is a technical report on trade, I feel that it is impossible for any agreement with the State of Israel to be neutral and apolitical. We opposed this Euro-Mediterranean Agreement because it means that, for agriculture and fishery resources, the liberalisation of these markets will open them up to large companies that will threaten the survival of small farmers and fishermen on both sides. Over and above the strictly economic impact of the Agreement, we must take into account the current political situation. The serious war crimes against the people of Gaza, which will be neither prosecuted nor punished in Israel, make it impossible for enhanced trade relations with that country to be seen as neutral. In fact, they are an affirmation of political collaboration with its illegal settlement of territories and with its war crimes. I voted against this report to express my opposition to Israel’s criminal policy."@en1
