It’s wrong for the European Union to equate Palestinian terror which has claimed innocent civilian lives with the IDF military operations in the West Bank to eliminate that terror, Foreign Minister Eli Cohen told EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell on Tuesday.

"There is no place to compare or create equity between the victims of terrorism on the Israeli side and the Palestinian terrorists supported by the Palestinian Authority,” Cohen said, according to a release from his office.

He spoke up after Borrell wrote an article in Project Syndicate in which he called for an end to violence by both Israelis and Palestinians as he spoke of the important role his 27-member bloc could play in a renewed peace process to create a two-state resolution to the conflict.
