For Ambassador PĂ©rez, Israel is taking advantage âof the current international situation to accelerate its brutal aggression against Palestine, as well as the double standard with which conflicts in the world are approached today: the Palestinian people have suffered more than 70 years from the Israeli policy of apartheid, and deserve justice.”
Rechazamos que Israel se aproveche de la actual coyuntura int. para acelerar su brutal agresiĂłn contra Palestina, asĂ como la doble moral con que se abordan hoy los conflictos en el mundo: el Pueblo Palestino ha sufrido +70 años la polĂtica israelĂ de apartheid y merece justicia. https://t.co/Ud7e2BCjvp
