I must show the commitment of the EU so it would be a bad sign not to go to Gaza.

I have more and more the impression that things could go calmly.

My main concern is safety and security. I will go on Wednesday myself to Gaza to assess the risk ... We would never deploy if there's a real risk of kidnapping or them being prevented from doing their work.

The death of millions of Jews, homosexuals, Roma, is in no way comparable to cartoons or the burning of flags. We cannot talk to you if you deal with this in this manner.
