BRUSSELS, March 30, 2026 (WAFA) - EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kaja Kallas, said the decision by Israeli police to bar Jerusalem’s Latin Patriarch from entering the Church of the Holy Sepulchre on Palm Sunday constitutes a violation of religious freedom and long-standing protections governing holy sites.
In a post on X, she said, “Freedom of worship in Jerusalem must be fully guaranteed, without exception, for all faiths.”
“Jerusalem’s multi-religious character must be protected,” she concluded.
