French MP Thomas Portes has criticised the French government’s bias in favour of the Israeli occupation, Al Jazeera reports.
Speaking at a demonstration in Paris, Thomas Portes said politicians and the media did not recognise the word genocide and forbid it in all forums, but that the crimes committed in Gaza constituted genocide.
The MP denounced France’s participation in those crimes and the authorities’ treatment of students and pro-Palestine demonstrators.
“Don’t be afraid of those who want to prevent you and silence you and do not stop supporting the Palestinian people … we must stop this government’s support for genocide,” he said.
