The UK’s former Labour Party leader and current Member of Parliament Jeremy Corbyn has described late US President Jimmy Carter as “one of the only US Presidents to speak honestly about Palestine”.
Reposting a video of Carter on social media, Corbyn quotes the late president, who died at the age of 100, using the word “apartheid” to describe the situation for Palestinians under Israeli occupation.
“The word apartheid… is exactly accurate,” Carter was quoted as saying in the interview.
“The Palestinians can’t even ride on the same roads that the Israelis have created or built in Palestinian territory,” Carter said.
