The European Jewish Congress (EJC) said on Wednesday that the EU’s resolution supporting the controversial UN Goldstone report will weaken the chances for peace in the Middle East and expressed disappointment over the move.
“The first line of the resolution emphasized the importance of achieving a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, but the resolution will have achieved the exact opposite. Furthermore, it could damage the possibility of the European Union taking an active part in achieving that goal” said EJC President, Dr. Moshe Kantor.
Based in Brussels, the European Jewish Congress is the representative umbrella organisation of national Jewish communities. It federates democratically elected national Jewish community organisations in over 40 European countries uniting 2.5 million Jews across the continent.
