European Union officials are working on a 17th package of sanctions against Russia, set to be ready for an EU foreign ministers meeting in May, the bloc's foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said on Monday (April 14), Reuters reports.
The EU's top diplomat also told reporters that Israel has the right to defend itself, but its current actions go beyond proportionate self-defence.
"We welcome the Arab plan for the reconstruction of Gaza, but at the same time, it lacks three important elements, which are funding, security and the governance of Gaza. But we are willing to work with our Arab partners and international partners to develop these topics," Kallas added.
