My piece in the EU Observer on France’s recognition of the State of Palestine and all that remains to be done to prevent what history will recognise as a genocide.
Excerpts.
« If I ever return on a mission to the Palestinian Territories with Macron’s parliamentarians, I will no longer be embarrassed to visit a mere technical office representing France to Palestine: it will then be France’s embassy to the — still occupied — state of Palestine.
Yet as president Macron met with injured children from Gaza last April in Egypt, I doubt he told them France will recognise the State of Palestine to heal their wounds.
Maybe he felt the same way that I felt when I visited France’s navy ship Dixmude, which he had stationed only 39km away from Gaza in 2023-2024 to provide urgent medical care to thousands of evacuees.
I kept thinking: France’s army is right next to Gaza, it could bring lifesaving aid to millions. If only there was more political will. »
