🇫🇷Our French colleagues @Destin_commun helped inspire new hit political drama La Fievre on @canalplus (by the makers of Baron Noir). The show depicts the descent into an identitarian civil war. One to watch if you can (and look for us in ep. 6! 😉) https://t.co/v89YVziZDQ

The US, the UN, the EU and the rest of the world agree that we are at the brink of famine in Northern Gaza. Still, only 159 trucks were allowed into Gaza yesterday and Israel blocks all food convoys from UNRWA to reach North Gaza. There must be accountability for this.

It was tragic that Israeli troops shot and killed three Israeli hostages while they were shirtless, unarmed and waving a white flag. But it would also have been tragic if they had been Palestinian civilians, and then there'd have been no investigation.

In his Nobel lecture, President Carter said, “We will not learn to live together in peace by killing each other’s children.” His words resonate today more than ever as the Israel-Hamas conflict enters a new and even more dangerous phase. Full statement:

jews and palestinians are the same people. they come from (and have historically been thrown out of) the same land. neither are going anywhere. now is a time of war. it’s going to get much worse before any chance of getting better. there’s still no choice but living

Martti Ahtisaari remembered It's with great sadness that we've learned of the death of Martti Ahtisaari, co-chair emeritus of ECFR. The European Council on Foreign Relations was blessed to have Martti Ahtisaari as its co-chair from the very beginning in 2007.
