European Parliament debate on the situation in the Middle East, the growing escalation between Israel and Iran, including the humanitarian situation in Gaza
The Parliament approves a proposal by the EPP, S&D and Renew groups for a joint debate on the situation in the region. The debate will also include a statement by EU High Representative Kaja Kallas, who is expected to comment, among other things, on the state of the EU-Israel association.
MEPs will focus in particular on the growing military tensions between Israel and Iran, which have raised fears of a wider armed conflict. They also want to address the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, which has been ongoing since the start of the Israeli military operation.
The Left Group has proposed that Parliament adopt a resolution on the whole situation - the official position of the EP. However, this proposal was rejected by the majority of MEPs, so the debate will proceed without a final document.
The debate will take place during the current plenary week and is expected to reopen difficult questions about the EU's position as a diplomatic actor in the Middle East conflict.
