The #EC commissioner for the Mediterranean, Dubravka Suica, is attending.
"Our objective is clear∶ coordinated action, accountable governance, & tangible results for the #Palestinian people," Suica wrote on social media ahead of the meeting.
While Suica is attending as an observer, several #EU member states have raised concerns about an EU commissioner participating in a meeting of a body many EU governments see as undermining #InternationalLaw.
#France said it was surprised that the #EuropeanCommission had sent an official to the #BoardOfPeace meeting, saying it did not have the mandate to represent member states.
"Regarding the European Commission & its participation, in reality we are surprised because it does not have a mandate from the Council to go & participate," foreign ministry spox Pascal Confavreux said to reporters, referring to the Council of the #EU's members.

Deep Sea Mining:
Interesting interview with the UN official trying to agree some basic environmental rules for half the ocean floor.
She basically says a moratorium won’t happen as too many countries (like the USA) will go ahead anyway. What a species we are.

#MarcoRubio described the latter as “an account that belongs to Venezuela, but it has US sanctions as a blocking mechanism.” He privately told lawmakers earlier this month that officials want to prevent Venezuela’s creditors from tapping into the cash.

"This is no more apparent than in the genocide in Gaza. Without a doubt, there have been other atrocities and genocides committed. But this one was completely funded and supported by the United States and other Western nations. They are the engine of this project of annihilation. And in no other case is the hypocrisy more glaring."

"there is no doubt that the U.S. operation in Venezuela had “zionist undertones” in the sense that the operation was strongly supported and cheered on by Israel, due to Venezuela’s alliance with Palestinian resistance and due to the fact that it helps isolate Iran for another regime change war."
