"When the EU pressures other countries, such as South Africa and others in the Global South, to align with its geopolitical priorities (on Ukraine/Russia), while giving itself a pass when convenient (on Israel/Palestine), it grates in other parts of the world and undermines the very case for the “rules-based international order” that the EU purports to defend and exemplify."

@immibis
The article at top of this thread lists many examples of silencing by @germany

Your recollection may hint at an earlier incident:
#Oyoun, a migrant-led cultural center, refused to give in to political pressure and cancel the 20-year anniversary event of the Jewish anti-Zionist group Jüdische Stimme in November 2023. #Berlin’s Culture Minister #JoeChialo ended the center’s contract with the city government, effectively shuttering Oyoun.

They announced: “This decision feels like more than just a closure; it resembles the setting of a precedent that all state-funded institutions may now fear. The implications are far-reaching, impacting the very essence of artistic freedom and expression.”

UN expert Francesca Albanese spoke to the UN Palestinian Rights Committee on 31 October 2024. She called on all States to examine their relationships and avoid being #complicit in the crime of genocide being committed by Israel on the Palestinian people in Gaza.

"A series of recent incidents have brought into focus two of Israel’s most rock-solid allies: Egypt, the first Arab ‘normalizer’ and now Tel Aviv’s most reliable regional trading partner, and Germany, the nation that defined ‘genocide’ for the 20th century."
"According to these reports, Israel’s success in crossing Lebanese territorial waters required either willful coordination or deliberate neglect by the German Navy operating within UN peacekeeping forces in Lebanon (UNIFIL)."
