European Union condemns Israel's UNRWA law

London, IRNA - The EU foreign policy chief in a statement on behalf of 27 member states of the Union condemned the resolution of the Zionist Parliament (Knesset) on banning the activities of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA), and said that the activities of the international institution should continue.

Josep Borrell stated in this statement that the European Union condemns any attempt to cancel the 1967 agreement between Israel and UNRWA or any attempt to prevent the activity of this organization in line with the implementation of its mission.

"If this law is implemented, it will have far-reaching consequences and will stop UNRWA's vital operations in Gaza and the West Bank," he added.

The statement said that therefore, it is essential that UNRWA can continue to carry out its vital work in line with the mission approved by the UN General Assembly in 1949 and extended since then.
