Israel-Palestine: China more vocal as Europe remains silent?

The visit by a far-right Israeli government minister to the third-holiest site in Islam has caused an international outcry. However the European Union’s response has remained curiously muted. The Palestinian leadership denounced Itamar Ben-Gvir for “deliberate and unprecedented provocation” at the Al Aqsa mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem. Arab allies including the UAE and Egypt backed calls for action at the United Nations, as well as Turkiye and even more notably China. But the question is where’s Europe?
