A public letter signed by 209 former EU diplomats calls for urgent action on Israel’s war in Gaza and illegal acts in the West Bank. The letter asks the EU or its member states to act alone or in small groups if the EU cannot act collectively. It suggests nine steps, including stopping arms exports and banning trade with illegal settlements. The letter was published on 25 Aug 2025 and includes senior diplomats like Alain Le Roy and Carlo Trojan. The group says European governments risk losing credibility if they do not act. Polls in Germany show 80% of people disagree with Israel’s actions in Gaza and want their government to respond. This is the third public call from former diplomats, urging action to support human rights and international law. (Updated 26 Aug 2025, 17:48 IST; source: link)
