We voted in favour of this report because, of course, we are not opposed to aid from European countries being granted to Palestinian refugees. There is nothing, however, to boast about when you see the increase in the amount of this aid. If you take the number of Palestinian refugees crammed into the countries of the Middle East, the sum being proposed only represents approximately EUR 40 per year at the most. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that the full amount will go directly to refugees, and that, along the way, it will not grease the palms of European companies and suppliers.
Above all, however, how can we fail to mention the hypocrisy of the report which criticises the fact that ‘refugees’ living conditions are becoming increasingly difficult’ and which has the gall to blame, in particular, the ‘high population growth’ but which does not even mention the war conducted by the State of Israel against the Palestinian nation? The report does not condemn the fact that, although thousands of Palestinians are forced to live in refugee camps, this is because the State of Israel, with the support of the most powerful nations, Europe included, is opposed to them being able to return to the land from which they were driven?"@en1
