John,
Thousands of people are on the brink of death by starvation in Gaza -- its main hospital is overwhelmed with children in pain from malnutrition.
Between the Israeli government's forced starvation and relentless airstrikes, the situation is as dire as ever.
The UK just announced it is suspending trade talks with Israel, and now the EU said it will review the EU Israel trade agreement which is something our community has been demanding for months!
But the bloc could stall the process or even back down entirely which is why we need to push hard NOW before we lose momentum.
Tell EU foreign ministers: keep up the pressure on Israel -- suspend the EU Israel trade agreement NOW.
This is how we stop the genocide. We make it untenable for the Israeli government to continue. The more governments suspend trade, place sanctions, and divest from the occupation economy -- the closer we'll be to forcing Israel to stop its brutal oppression.
The EU is Israel's #1 trade partner. If it suspends its trade agreement, it will have massive impact on the Israeli government and could bring us closer to ending the suffering.
But it will be very easy for the EU to back down, especially if Israel agrees to let in aid this week in an effort to appease EU officials. More than ever we need these officials to see that people everywhere are demanding a full suspension of trade, with or without temporary aid deliveries.
Tell EU foreign ministers: Stop the genocide in Gaza -- suspend trade with Israel.
