EU decision on Israel must turn into action
CPJ welcomes Tuesday’s decision by European Union foreign ministers to review the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which sets out the EU’s legal and institutional framework for political dialogue and economic cooperation with Israel. CPJ has been calling for a suspension of the agreement, as well as for the EU to adopt targeted sanctions against IDF officials and others responsible, since August 2024.
