Deutschland muss Aussetzung des EU-Israel-Abkommens zustimmen
(May 8, 2026)
„Die Aussetzung des EU-Israel Assoziierungsabkommens, gegen dessen Menschenrechtsklausel die israelische Regierung permanent verstöĂt, ist eine juristische und moralische Verpflichtung. AuĂenminister Wadephul hat die Wahl, Menschenrechte zum Eckpfeiler europĂ€ischer Israel-Politik zu machen â oder mit Doppelstandards weiter die EU zu spalten und internationales Recht auszuhöhlen,“ sagt Julia Duchrow, GeneralsekretĂ€rin von Amnesty International in Deutschland.
„Deutschland sollte nicht lĂ€nger dazu beitragen, dass Israels GrĂ€ueltaten folgenlos bleiben. Stattdessen sollte sich AuĂenminister Wadephul der Mehrheit der EU-Staaten anschlieĂen und die ĂŒberfĂ€lligen Schritte mittragen: die Aussetzung des Abkommens, ein Verbot des Handels mit illegalen Siedlungen sowie ein Ende sĂ€mtlicher Waffenlieferungen nach Israel“, sagt Philipp Frisch, Direktor von Human Rights Watch Deutschland.
EU faces criticism for secret police data talks with Israel: Report
(August 15, 2026)
The European Commission has been negotiating a secret agreement to share sensitive personal data with Israelâs police service, despite internal legal warnings that the deal could violate international law and put Palestinians at risk, according to a new report by civil rights group Statewatch published by Novara Media, Anadolu reports.
The draft agreement, originally negotiated with the European police agency Europol, would allow the exchange of biometric data, genetic information, location data, political views, and personal details.
Critical research indicates the deal has progressed despite a 2022 ruling by the Council of the EUâs Legal Service which deemed the proposal legally untenable.
EU Moves to Share Data With Israel That âCould Be Used to Kill Palestiniansâ
(August 4, 2026)
Under the plans, the blocâs law enforcement agency, Europol, would exchange sensitive personal information about Palestinians with Israelâs police force, which is headquartered in the illegally occupied West Bank.
There is also concern the deal could harm members of the Palestinian diaspora, with a risk that activists in Europe could be targeted.
The data would include names, identification numbers, locations, genetic and biometric information and details about peopleâs political views, beliefs and personal lives.

EU/Israel: Blocâs consistent failure to suspend Association Agreement should spur member states to take unilateral action
(July 13, 2026)
âItâs beyond shameful that a majority of EU member states, led by Germany and Italy, continue to block the suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement. Countries committed to uphold international law must not remain silent while others actively undermine the very principles they claim to defend.
(…)
âIn the pages of history, there will be a clear distinction between those who failed to act in the face of Israelâs genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and those who stood up for humanity.â

EU foreign ministers have failed to agree on sanctions against Israelâs far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, the blocâs foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas says.
âMany member states have also proposed to sanction Minister Ben-Gvir, but no consensus on that was reached,â Kallas said.
Suspend EU-Israel Trade Agreement
Israel is committing heinous violations of international law against Palestinians and in Lebanon with impunity, and has just adopted a death penalty law targeting Palestinians. The European Union (EU) is Israelâs biggest trading partner, and must take concrete action. Italy and Germany can sway the decision to suspend the EU-Israel trade agreement. Send a message and demand Giorgia Meloni and Friedrich Merz stop greenlighting Israelâs genocide, unlawful occupation and apartheid.
(…)
Send a message and demand the leaders of Germany and Italy support suspending the EUâs trade agreement with Israel. There is no time to lose.

EU: Failure to suspend EU-Israel Association Agreement shows contempt for civilian lives
(April 21, 2026)
Reacting to the EUâs failure to call for a vote to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement or to agree on any other concrete measures today at the EU Foreign Affairs Council in Luxembourg, Erika Guevara-Rosas, Amnesty Internationalâs Senior Director for Research, Advocacy, Policy and Campaigns said:
âAt this point, the EUâs decision to maintain its trade agreement with Israel represents a moral failure and illustrates brazen contempt for civilian lives, particularly in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) and in Lebanon.
âOne million people in Europe, more than 75 NGOs, almost 400 former diplomats, UN experts as well as Belgium, Ireland, Slovenia and Spain have all called for the immediate suspension of the agreement. Once again, these calls have been disregarded with Germany and Italy playing a key role in blocking the suspension.
Joint statement from the leaders of the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Japan on the Strait of Hormuz: 19 March 2026
Consistent with UNSC Resolution 2817, we emphasise that such interference with international shipping and the disruption of global energy supply chains constitute a threat to international peace and security.
Six U.S. allies back potential Strait of Hormuz coalition
Yes, but: France, Germany, Italy and Japan have previously all publicly ruled out sending naval vessels to the strait during the war.
Special Proceduresâ Coordination Committee condemns attacks against Francesca Albanese by State representatives: ‚Promote justice, not disinformation‘
âStates claiming to uphold human rights, justice and the rule of law should invest their time and energy in holding to account perpetrators of egregious human rights violations, rather than targeting those investigating and exposing international crimes in an objective way,â the Committee said.
The Committee reminded States that the Special Rapporteur is mandated by the UN Human Rights Council to âinvestigate Israelâs violations of the principles and bases of international law, international humanitarian law and the Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War ⊠in the Palestinian territories occupied by Israel since 1967.â
âInstead of demanding Ms Albaneseâs resignation for performing her mandate in very challenging circumstances â including persistent intimidation, coordinated personal attacks and unlawful unilateral sanctions â these Government representatives should join forces to hold accountable, including before the International Criminal Court, leaders and officials accused of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza,â the Committee said.
Independent UN body condemns ‚vicious attacks‘ on UN expert on Palestinian rights
The UN Coordination Committee – a body of six independent experts which coordinates and facilitates the work of Special Rapporteurs – accused European ministers of relying on „manufactured facts“.
„Instead of demanding Ms Albanese‘s resignation for performing her mandate…these government representatives should join forces to hold accountable, including before the International Criminal Court, leaders and officials accused of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza,“ the Committee said.
EU Revives Plan to Ban Private Messaging
(August 4, 2025)
Italy, Spain, and Hungary have been in favor of mandatory chat scanning from the start. France could tip the balance since blocking the plan requires four countries representing at least 35 percent of the EUâs population. Paris has moved from tentative support to saying it could âbasically support the proposal.â
Italian navy to stop assisting Gaza flotilla despite fears of Israeli attack
(September 30, 2025)
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni later reiterated her call for flotilla members to immediately stop their mission, warning that a confrontation with Israel could derail diplomatic efforts to secure a ceasefire in Gaza.
„Many would be happy to disrupt„ a peace plan pushed by US President Donald Trump, Meloni said in a statement. „I fear that the flotilla‘s attempt to breach the Israeli naval blockade could provide a pretext for this.“
The European Union Is Complicit in Genocide
(August 11, 2025)
The EU presents itself as a global champion of moral and legal leadership, grounded in the principles of human rights, international law, democracy, and humanitarianism. Yet its failure to uphold these values in the case of Palestine severely undermines its credibility. As Israelâs largest trading partner and second-largest arms supplier, the EU possesses considerable leverage; its refusal to use this influence to hold Israel accountable or protect Palestinian lives signals not powerlessness but a conscious choice of complicity. Moreover, given its member statesâ historical entanglement in the colonial partitioning of the Middle East, the EU bears a deeper responsibility to act with justice. Its failure to do so today echoes the very dynamics of domination and double standards it claims to have left behind.
EU-Israel: Refusal to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement is a âcruel and unlawful betrayalâ
(July 15, 2025)
Reacting to the EUâs decision not to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement, AgnĂšs Callamard Amnesty Internationalâs Secretary General said:
âThe EUâs refusal to suspend its agreement with Israel is a cruel and unlawful betrayal â of the European project and vision, predicated on upholding international law and fighting authoritarian practices, of the European Unionâs own rules and of the human rights of Palestinians.
This will be remembered as one of the most disgraceful moments in the EUâs history.
EU diplomats confirm they won‘t yet sanction Israel on Gaza
(August 4, 2025)
Gathered online for their regular Mashreq/Maghreb Working Party and despite mounting pressure on Israel over the hunger crisis in Gaza, the 27 EU diplomats still couldnât reach any qualified majority on a European Commission proposal to cut Israel from partial access to the EU‘s âŹ95 billion Horizon Europe research fund.
âThe situation has not changed,â one EU diplomat said, referring to a formal meeting of EU ambassadors last week which also failed to agree to the Commissionâs proposal. The diplomat said the issue was now in the hands of the EUâs foreign affairs ministers, who will meet informally on 29 August.
