The UN Security Council voted on a US resolution backing a cease-fire plan in Gaza, as Antony Blinken visited Israel to push the proposal.
The European Union has welcomed the UN Security Council resolution on the latest cease-fire proposal in Gaza and called for its “immediate implementation.”
“The European Union welcomes the adoption of the United Nations Security Council resolution 2735, supporting the new ceasefire proposal announced on 31 May,” it said in a statement.
“The EU recalls its full support to the comprehensive roadmap presented by United States President Joe Biden. We urge both parties to accept and implement the three-phase proposal,” it added.
“The EU stands ready to contribute to reviving a political process for a lasting and sustainable peace, based on the two-state solution, and to support a coordinated international effort to rebuild Gaza.”
