A Dutch advisory body has called for European countries to do more to prevent a larger conflict in the Middle East. The European Union has been facing increasing pressure to become more involved in the ongoing conflict in the region.
After the recent Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, most EU countries expressed strong support for Israel. However, as the conflict in Gaza continues to escalate, some European countries have started to shift their stance, with some even imposing arms embargoes on Israel.
Criticism has been directed towards the Dutch government for not taking significant action in response to the conflict. Calls have been made for the Netherlands to join other European countries in efforts to prevent the conflict from spreading further.
During a discussion on the topic, experts highlighted the need for European countries to work together to address the escalating conflict in the Middle East. James Moran, Emmanuel Dupuy, and Lek Takkenberg emphasized the importance of collective action and cooperation in order to prevent the situation from worsening.
As tensions continue to rise in the region, it is crucial for European countries to step up their efforts to prevent a larger conflict from taking place. By working together and taking decisive action, there is hope that the situation in the Middle East can be stabilized and further escalation can be avoided.
