Slovenia: Gaza silence is complicity

 

European countries’ silence on Gaza amounts to complicity says Slovenian President Nataša Pirc Musar in an exclusive interview in Ljubljana.

President Pirc Musar, the first European leader to call Israel’s actions “genocide”, insists states must “shout and scream” when international law is violated in such a blatant way.

As a UN Security Council member, Slovenia has imposed a full arms embargo on Israel and warns that Europe’s double standards risk eroding its moral credibility.

Nataša Pirc Musar says countries must do the right thing to ensure they are on the “right side of history”.

She also challenges the paralysis of the UN system and the bullying of international courts, arguing that without accountability, global security will unravel. This episode of Bigger Than Five looks at how smaller nations are now leading where bigger nations have failed.
