Jeg kan derfor forstå, at vi ønskede at sende et budskab til Israel ved at udsætte afstemningen, fordi vi ønsker ikke at give det indtryk, at vi belønner dette land på et tidspunkt, for situationen for mere end 1 mio. palæstinensere i Gaza forværres dag for dag.
I can therefore understand that we wanted to send a message to Israel by deferring the vote, because we do not want to create the impression that we are rewarding that country in a time when the day-to-day situation is deteriorating for more than a million Palestinians who live in Gaza.
