RAMALLAH, Thursday, April 27, 2023 (WAFA) - The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates rejected what it described as “the inappropriate, false, and discriminatory” remarks by the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, on Israel’s 75th creation anniversary particularly the “make the desert bloom” anti-Palestinian racist trope.
It said in a statement that “such propagandist discourse dehumanizes and erases the Palestinian people and falsifies their rich history and civilization. Likewise, such narrative perpetuates the continued and racist denial of the Nakba and whitewashes Israel’s illegal occupation and apartheid regime.”
The Ministry said that “such adoption of anti-Palestinian rhetoric undermines the European Union’s standing and casts serious doubts on its declared commitment to international law and human rights. It is also a betrayal to European citizens who do not endorse such racist erasure of the Palestinian people.”
The Foreign Ministry said EC President Ursula von der Leyen owes the European citizens and the Palestinian people an apology.
