Nick Schifrin:
And we’re now joined by the high representative for foreign affairs and security policy for the European Union, Josep Borrell.
Thank you very much. Welcome back to the “NewsHour.”
Let me start with Israel and Gaza.
Today, as you saw, the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, made a speech at Congress, and he said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been too willing to tolerate the civilian toll in Gaza, which is pushing support for Israel worldwide to historic lows.
Do you agree?
Josep Borrell, European Union Minister for Foreign Affairs: Well, I perceive a change on the mood of the public opinion in the U.S. with respect to what’s happening in Gaza.
More and more people are feeling concerned with what I certainly can call a massacre. We have 30,000 civilians killed. It’s a lot of people. President Biden and Vice President Kamala has been saying that to many, certainly.
And it is not just in the U.S. It’s true that the whole world is concerned about what’s happening there.
