Actress Adèle Haenel challenges Macron on her silence in the face of the Israeli attack on the flotilla for Gaza

Since one of the humanitarian boats of the Global Sumud Flotilla, the French actress Adèle Haenel has addressed directly to the President of the Republic. His video is a pressing call after a new under swift night. “Emmanuel Macron, I have a question for you. The UN said today that attacks should stop. So how is it that you did not hear? Again yesterday, we were the target of drones, dozens of explosions rocked the boats. »»

The actress recalls that several participants are French nationals and that the mission, pacifist and humanitarian, acts “within the framework of international law” to send emergency aid to Gaza. “How is it that the French government remains silent when our lives are endangered, in violation of international law?” She questions. As night falls, anxiety grows on board. “As the day declines, we are preparing for a new attack, perhaps more violent. I ask you to take your responsibilities: Can you assure us that the French State will do everything to guarantee our security and respect for international law? »»

Adèle Haenel’s call highlights a double embarrassment for the French executive. On the one hand, Paris claims to be international law and support for Palestinian civilians. On the other, he avoids any open confrontation with Israel, whose navy has already attacked several humanitarian missions to Gaza. By denouncing this official silence, the actress refers Emmanuel Macron to her contradictions: how to demand that there are no more attacks against the Global Sumud flotilla while remaining silent in the face of French citizens engaged in a legal humanitarian mission?
