IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Berlin, June 11, IRNA -- European Union foreign ministers will look into the possibility of easing the Israeli siege of Gaza when they meet in Luxembourg on Monday, German foreign ministry spokesman Andreas Peschke told media representatives in Berlin on Friday.
The meeting in Luxembourg will focus on "ending or at least easing the blockade of Gaza," according to the German official.
"We are seeking "a unified EU line" on the issue," said Peschke, who added
the EU was also dwelling on its role "to improve the humanitarian situation
in Gaza."
Meanwhile, EU foreign minister will also discuss aspects of an independent and transparent probe of Israel's lethal raid on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla in international waters on May 31, said Peschke.
The Zionist regime has yet to agree to an international investigation of its attack on the Gaza aid convoy which provoked global outrage and condemnation.
