"I was unable to vote in favour of this motion for a resolution, as it condemns the violence committed by Israel and by armed groups in Gaza in equivalent terms. While I condemn the missile attacks on Israel, this country, aside from causing almost 100 times as many deaths, fails to comply with any of the resolutions adopted by the international community and is the main threat to peace in the region. Israel has disregarded all of the United Nations Security Council resolutions, is occupying territories that legitimately belong to the Palestinian State and continually violates the sovereignty and human rights of Palestinians. All of these infringements go unpunished, since no action will be taken in response to these war crimes against civilians. This allows Israel to act unilaterally, without the international community imposing any form of restraint. This situation is unacceptable and it not possible to condemn both sides in the same way as if they were equally responsible for the violence that occurred during the military operation. For that reason, I did not support this motion for a resolution."@en1
