Israel gets a new setback in the midst of war, another western country leaves Israel
The whole world is protesting against Israel’s attacks targeting civilians in Gaza. Many countries have been protesting Israel’s military action since the beginning of the war. As the war is getting prolonged, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is getting worse. America has been vetoing the resolution passed in the UN on Israel’s military action. But now America’s tone also seems to have changed. Now news has come about another ally of Israel that it will stop military aid.
The country that is preparing to give a blow to Israel is Canada. A resolution has been passed in the House of Commons of Canada regarding the consignment of weapons to Israel. Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Jolie, while talking to ‘Toronto Star’, said that the Canadian government will stop military aid to Israel in future. This proposal was presented in the Parliament by the New Democratic Party, and the party has expressed disappointment over the Canadian government not taking adequate steps to protect citizens in Gaza.
The ban is temporary
However, despite this proposal, there is no change in Canada’s stand regarding Palestine-Israel. Canada has been saying that Palestine should get the status of a state only after talks with Israel. The Canadian government has said that for the time being they have banned Israel’s military exports, but they will continue to assess it according to the situation. Let us tell you that Canadian President Trudeau has been supporting Israel’s attacks in Gaza for ‘self-defense’.
The proposal was called weak
The pro-Palestine organizations in Canada have called this proposal weak. However, the organizations also said, “This proposal is a small step towards ending Canadian participation in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.”
The Jewish lobby opposed the proposal
After the voting, Israel and the Jewish lobby have called this proposal ‘misleading and false’. They also said that this step of the Canadian government will create obstacles in the way of Gaza residents getting rid of Hamas’ terror.
