Madam President, dear colleagues. Señora presidenta, bienvenido al Parlamento Europeo, querido Pedro.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen. If you listen to some discussion here, you might think that this is just another spiral in the Middle East conflict – but it is not. This day, 7 October 2023, is a turning point. It was the deadliest attack on Jewish life since the Holocaust. And it wasn't collateral damage, it wasn't an attack on the Israeli state. It was an attack on babies, children, old men,…
