[01] SYRIZA leader: Brutality in Palestine must end
ANA/MPA---The brutality Palestine is experiencing must end, main
opposition SYRIZA party leader Alexis Tsipras said on Tuesday during
a rally and march to main Syntagma Square to protest the Israeli army
military campaign in the Gaza Strip.
The event was organised by Leftist and Palestinian groups and immigrant
communities.
"Palestine is in perpetual war - this war must stop at some point;
this brutality cannot be tolerated," Tsipras said. "When civilians and
children are killed at beaches facing the same sea that borders the
European continent, we cannot remain passive, because if this happens on
the other side of the Mediterranean today, it can happen on our own side
tomorrow. I want to note that the voices of solidarity movements are, for
the first time, uniting under a strong movement within Israel," he added.
A just and peaceful solution will create a viable and democratic
Palestinian state on the 1967 borders, as the United Nations resolutions
also call for, he said.
The protesters gathering at Syntagma then marched to the European
Commission Representation offices in Greece and the United States Embassy.
