More than 20 countries are convening in Bogota next week to declare “concrete measures against Israel’s violations of international law”, diplomats told Middle East Eye.

The “emergency summit” is due to be held on 15-16 July, co-hosted by the governments of Colombia and South Africa as co-chairs of The Hague Group, to coordinate diplomatic and legal action to counter what they describe as “a climate of impunity” enabled by Israel and its powerful allies.

The founding members of the group included Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras, Malaysia, Namibia, Senegal and South Africa.

States due to take part in the summit include Algeria, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, China, Cuba, Djibouti, Honduras, Indonesia, Ireland, Lebanon, Malaysia, Namibia, Nicaragua, Oman, Portugal, Spain, Qatar, Turkey, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Uruguay, and Palestine.

      NATO supporters always claim, that as a sovereign nation, Ukraine should have the right to end the war on their own terms. To get together with Russia and say:“If you do this and that, then we’re happy and the fighting ends.” But, oh wait, that already happened years ago in 2022 when Russia and Ukraine practically had an agreement to make peace but NATO caused them to keep fighting. German, Turkish and Israeli mediators who were present at the negotiations all say that’s what happened. As does chief negotiator and leader of the ruling party in the Ukraine, David Arakhamia. They all agree, that NATO influence was what ultimately caused the deal to fall through. Is that what support looks like?
