Israel's conduct in Lebanon totally unacceptable

Israel's actions in Lebanon are "totally unacceptable", Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot said on Tuesday ahead of a meeting with EU foreign ministers in Luxembourg.



"Israel's conduct is completely unacceptable. Of course, we must firmly condemn Hezbollah's initial attacks, which, in seeking to show solidarity with Iran, dragged Lebanon into a war it did not want, as well as Israel's disproportionate and indiscriminate response."



He also said Belgium is calling for at least a partial suspension of the EU's Association's Agreement with Israel, adding that Belgium is "aware that a full suspension is probably out of reach given the positions of the various European countries".
