Meanwhile the German government reconfirmed on Friday, that they stand by Israel, when journalists asks about consequences for these statements that are in opposition to the supposed demand from the German government.

I am starting to worry, that even if the ICJ rules Israel to commit genocide, Germany will ride along. Unlike Israel we are a signatory to the ICC though, so the ministers of today could be tried in Den-Hague tomorrow.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The Israeli premier’s remarks were criticised by the bloc’s foreign ministers, who, upon arriving at a high-stakes meeting in Brussels, reiterated that the creation of a Palestinian state must be part of future peace negotiations.

Under discussion is a 10-step peace roadmap tabled by the bloc’s foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, who aims to rally the EU and other key international actors around a common plan to halt hostilities in the Gaza Strip, establish an independent Palestinian state and bring long-term security in the region.

Jordan’s foreign minister Ayman Safadi also vehemently criticised the Israeli stance, which he described as a “radical racist agenda,” and backed the prospect of targeted sanctions to put pressure on Israel.

As fighting concentrates in Gaza’s main southern city of Khan Younis, fears of regional spillover are also still alive, as intelligence suggests Iran-backed Houthi rebels seek more weapons to increase their attacks on commercial vessels navigating in the Red Sea.

The 27 foreign ministers are also expected to discuss EU plans to sanction Israeli settlers responsible for violent attacks in the occupied Palestinian territory of the West Bank, following the US and UK’s lead.

On Friday, the bloc established a new sanctions framework to directly target individuals supporting Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, designated as terrorist organisations by the EU.
