Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"In the nearly two years since Israel’s assault on Gaza began, at least initially in response to the Hamas attack on 7 October, over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed. Entire cities lie in ruins, starvation is widespread, and a growing chorus of international legal experts warn of a looming genocide. Despite this, the European Union continues its preferential trade and research partnership with Israel under the EU–Israel Association Agreement — an agreement that is conditional on respect for human rights. Calls to suspend it are growing across Europe, yet EU institutions have so far declined to act.</p><p>Marc Botenga, Member of the European Parliament (MEP) from the Workers’ Party of Belgium (PTB/PVDA) and Vice-Chair of the Left group in the European Parliament, has been a leading critic of the EU’s response to Israel’s actions in Gaza and the occupation of Palestinian territory. In April 2025, he proposed a resolution on the immediate suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement with a group of fifteen MEPs. Recently, he spoke with the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation’s Alexandra Gerasimcikova about his views and the next political steps the Left in Europe can take."</p><p><a href="https://www.rosalux.de/en/news/id/53698/challenging-the-eus-deadly-partnership-with-israel" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">rosalux.de/en/news/id/53698/ch</span><span class="invisible">allenging-the-eus-deadly-partnership-with-israel</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EU</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Israel</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Palestine</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gaza</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Boycott" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Boycott</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/BSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BSD</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Genocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Genocide</span></a></p>
