Zapatero Asks for International Intervention in Palestine
The European Union has reacted to the Israeli massacre in Beit Hanoun Gaza where 19 Palestinians, including women and children, were killed. Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero announced that the EU would soon launch an initiative to tackle the problem.
Words! Firm words! Stern, firm words! Demarche! Deplane! Deplane, boss!
Zapatero, who arrived in Istanbul as part of the Alliance of Civilizations initiative, met with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan at his office in Besiktas, Istanbul. Zapatero drew attention to the Israeli massacre and said that they were working on a plan within the EU to prevent more tragic events in the region.

Reiterating his support for Turkey’s EU bid, Zapatero stated that they would favor the continuation of membership negotiations with Turkey at the EU’s December summit. In reference to the Greek Cypriots’ reluctance to resolve the Cyprus issue, Erdogan said that attempts were being made to blur the collective memory of the Greeks’ refusal of the U.N. plan.
