The Foreign Ministry responded to EU foreign ministers' decision to discuss suspending agreements with Israel, stating: 'We completely reject the direction taken in this statement, which reflects a total misunderstanding of the complex reality Israel faces.' The ministry added that 'this war was forced upon Israel by Hamas, which is responsible for its continuation. Ignoring this reality and criticizing Israel only reinforces Hamas's position and encourages it. We call on the European Union to apply pressure where it belongs - on Hamas.'
