We remain in solidarity with the Palestinian people

November 29 is International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, whose cause is of great importance to DiEM25, not just on this day but every day.

It’s an opportunity to once again reiterate our support for the people of Palestine in their struggle for freedom and dignity – a struggle that should concern people with humanitarian values everywhere.

In Europe, showing solidarity with Palestinians means acting to pressure our governments into withdrawing their shameful support for Israel’s vicious occupation and apartheid policies. One campaign which DiEM25 is a part of is doing just that – and you can help.

Stop Trade With Settlements

The EU opposes annexation and considers illegal settlements in occupied territories as an obstacle to international peace and stability. But even though illegal settlements constitute a war crime, the EU allows trade with them.

That trade allows for profits from annexation and contributes to the expansion of illegal settlements across the world. We are calling for an EU law that will end trade with illegal settlements once and for all.

This law will apply to occupied territories anywhere, among them the Occupied Palestine Territory and Israel’s illegal settlements there. It will also send a powerful signal around the world that the EU will no longer reward territorial aggression with trade and profits.

Sign the petition that pushes for a historic law that stops trade with illegal settlements here, and support the Palestinian people on this important date.

Free Palestine!
