STRASBURG, April 25, 2007, (WAFA)- Vice President of the European Parliament, Luisa Morgantini said that Israel has no right to kill with impunity on the Palestinian Territories.

In a press release, Morgantini went to say that with the constitution of the National Unity Government and its programme that sets the scene for the achievement of a sovereign Palestinian State within the established borders of 1967, the Palestinians have demonstrated their willingness to find a solution to the conflict.

"The Israeli Government instead continues to violate international law not only with targeted executions, but also with the seizure of land and the construction of the wall. These attacks form part of the Israeli army's threats to seriously jeopardise the Hamas ceasefire and to deal a fatal blow to the peace process started by the Arab League," she added.

Morgantini said the International Community was responsible for the continued Israeli military occupation and the deaths of Palestinians and Israelis and called on the EU to firmly demand that Israel cease its incessant violations, recognise the Palestinian National Unity Government and resume negotiations so as not to waste the historic opportunity represented by the Riyadh agreement.

"How many other abuses must be committed? How many other deaths must there be before the European Union takes a strong and pragmatic position regarding Israel on the respect of international law and human rights, in the name of a peaceful and long-lasting solution to the conflict based on the two peoples two states principle?", she concluded.
