A spokesperson for the European Commission on Monday called on Israel to stop its military escalation in Lebanon and to respect Lebanon’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
EU Foreign Affairs spokesperson Anouar El Anouni told a press conference that the EU also encourages continued engagement with ongoing diplomatic efforts aimed at securing a negotiated path towards long-term stability and security for both Lebanon and Israel.
He said the people of Lebanon have already endured immense hardship. “They didn’t choose this war, and this war is not theirs,” he said, adding that the people of Lebanon and Israel have the right to live in peace, security and dignity, free from the threat of renewed conflict.
