Government attributes decision to war crimes and human rights abuses being committed in Gaza
The title isn’t exact :
Moreover, their relations were only re-instaured after the western-supported coup by J.Añez :
(Here’s Colombia’s president 6 hours ago b.t.w., among other examples)
(no need to point out that it would be safer for them not to take position for//against any side. The article also spoke of Argentina, here’s an interesting 2mn-long point of view)
Clearly this is the work of Hamas
If you add a /s to indicate sarcasm you will shine more :)
Basically every country, for the most part, wants to keep regular relations going with every other country. Doesn’t mean they agree with each other or really even engage in trade. They want to remain friendly and have open communications channels. Severing ties in this way means that there is no possible normal interactions between them again.
What makes a ‘country’ is and itself very complicated. I do not believe Israel would want diplomatic relations with countries which sanction it.
ISIS was a ‘state’ at its peak and held control over territories but no one else had any formal diplomatic ties with them because everyone rightfully recognized them as an unlawful terrorist state. Is Israel really that different? Israel has shown blatant disregard for any peace plans whether its 1967 or Oslo. There are good reasons to not recognize Israel even though it holds territory.
Also, just because two countries have no formal diplomatic relations doesn’t mean they can’t have interactions. Look at USSR and Israel in this example
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1988_Ordzhonikidze_bus_hijacking
They were extradited to the Soviet Union and sentenced to prison terms, although at that time Israel and the Soviet Union had no extradition treaty as relations were still severed at the time. All hostages were released.
“Then–Defense Minister of Israel Yitzhak Rabin criticized Soviet authorities for providing the hijackers with an aircraft and flying them to Israel in exchange for the release of the hostages.”
Christ how evil can Israel get? “how dare you save an airplane full of children”
I wish Arab and Muslim countries with relations with the settler colony were as honourable as Bolivia
How can it be that Muslim/Arab countries talk so much about Israel, yet it was South Africa who went to ICJ.
I believe even though the Arab/Muslim people care about Palestinian people, but Arab/Muslim politicians don’t. They don’t give a fuck, as Israel also don’t give a fuck.
PS: Free Palestinians!
All I know is we need better leaders but the means to achieve that are mostly violent and the current governments are willing to be very violent to protect themselves
