If they did not pretend to be anything and have not joined the proposal of the opposition, it is that, as in the federally, the engages are badly taken in this file. Within Arizona, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Maxime Prévot (the committed) is always forced to express themselves in its own name in view of the position of the MR which refuses to recognize the state of Palestine and the use of the term “genocide”. Within the Walloon majority, the committed are a bit in the same position. Note, however, that the deputy Anne-Catherine Goffinet concluded one of her interventions, specifying that it was necessary to have “The courage to act”. Without specifying how …
Everyone has their definition of “genocide”?
A symbol
This Tuesday, the opposition located the debate in terms of symbols (such as recognition of Palestine) which “can advance events to a ceasefire “according to the deputy PS Anne Lambelin. “”On this recognition, there is nothing that advances “insists Stéphane Hazée. On the side of the PTB, Julien LiraDelfo asked the majority “on which side of the story she intended to place herself “.
In the ranks of the MR, as well as that of the Minister-President Adrien Dolimont (MR), we were careful not to move on the opposition ground even if, unanimously, the Liberals condemned a situation “unbearable “ in Gaza (Adrien Dolimont), and denounced the fact that it was “unacceptable to respond to horror by horror ” (Jean-paul election).
The majority, however, returned the possible recognition of Palestine to the European Union in a concern “efficiency “ (Wahl).

The MR will therefore especially insist on respecting the skills that are those of Wallonia on this conflict. And it must be recognized that there are few of them. The discussions will therefore especially focus on the cancellation by the Council of State of the decree taken under the previous legislature by the predecessor of Dolimont, Elio Di Rupo (PS). A decree that prohibited transit in Walloon airports, any material aimed at strengthening the military capacity of Israel. Adrien Dolimont hopes that the royal decree carried by the federal minister Jean-Luc Crucke (the committed)-and who for the moment is on examination to the Council of State-may give Wallonia the legal basis making it possible to put this prohibition back in place. “”For the time being we act on a case -by -case basis “explains the Minister-President who hammered several times that Wallonia wanted at all costs to avoid “Strengthen Israeli military capacities as provided for by a cooperation agreement between the federal part and the regions signed in 2007. Wallonia does not grant any arms export license to Israel”.
Maintaining cooperation
At the end of the race, everyone remained frozen in their initial positions. The Walloon Parliament did not vote the motion presented by the opposition and nothing symbolic has therefore emerged from these exchanges. We still learned that the government intended to maintain cooperation projects with NGOs carried out in Palestine to help civilian populations.
