Europe's obvious double standards on pro-Palestine marches and Israel's atrocities and war crimes demonstrate that the EU exclusively advocates for one set of people. Human Rights Watch has criticised the European Union for its double standards on human rights.
Turkiye's Foreign Minister, Hakan Fidan, criticised Europe's double standard in blocking pro-Palestinian protests in some EU countries. "Those who allow attacks on our holy book, the Quran, in the name of free expression are impeding those who want to protest the brutal killings of Palestinian civilians." "How can we protect civilians in Ukraine if we can't stop Israel from killing them in Gaza?" This is a blatant double standard."
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the Turkish president, blasted the EU for failing to call a cease-fire in Gaza. He accused the West of being indifferent to Muslim hardship. "How many more tonnes of bombs must fall on Gaza before the United Nations Security Council can take action?"
Israel's attacks on Gaza, according to Erdogan, have reached the level of massacre, and the international community's inaction is a disgrace to mankind. He emphasised the importance of a long-term settlement and the formation of an independent Palestinian state.
