EU Chief: Can't Stop Netanyahu

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu seems impossible to stop when it comes to his plans to crush Hamas and Hezbollah. This is stated by the EU's outgoing Foreign Minister Josep Borrell in connection with the UN top meeting in New York.

What we have done is to put all diplomatic pressure on achieving a ceasefire, but no one seems to be able to stop Netanyahu, he said to a press gathering shortly after the Israeli military launched its latest bombings of Beirut.

Regarding the negotiations on a ceasefire in Lebanon, the EU chief said that he supports the US and French plan to achieve a 21-day ceasefire, a plan that Israel seems to have paid no attention to in recent days, as it has carried out attacks that, according to Lebanese health authorities, have killed several hundred people.

Borrell also expressed skepticism about whether the US will achieve a breakthrough as a mediator in the negotiations on a ceasefire in Gaza.

We cannot simply rely on the US. The US has tried several times without succeeding.

One of Israel's stated goals in Gaza is to crush the terrorist-stamped Hamas, and according to Borrell, Netanyahu has made it clear that the same applies to Iran-backed Hezbollah.

If the interpretation of crushing (Hezbollah) is the same as for Hamas, then a long war is waiting.
