If a ceasefire is urgent, can the EU at least coordinate a stop of weapon exports by Member States to Israel? ↘️

Interesting "West vs rest" moment yesterday on French TV with the President of Congo, the 2nd biggest country in Africa.
The host asks: "Are you saying that the Chinese or the Russians behave better than us, Westerners, currently, in your opinion?"
"Oh absolutely!" he replies, "You don't quite understand African realities... it's astonishing to see how we are very distant in terms of cultures. We cannot understand why you come to give us lessons, for example, on human rights."
Reminds of the now famous saying from a Kenyan official: "Every time China visits we get a hospital, every time Britain visits we get a lecture”...

RT by @MarietjeSchaake: One ironic consequence of the intensive coverage of campus protests about Gaza is that it seems to have crowded out coverage of what is actually happening in Gaza itself. All sides in the west much more comfortable when the story is mainly about us
