26/11/2018 (Agence Europe) – The spokesperson for the European External Action Service, on Sunday 25 November, condemned the remarks of Iranian President Hassan Rohani calling into question Israel's legitimacy. In her view, these remarks, which describe Israel as a “cancerous tumour”, are “totally unacceptable” and “incompatible” with the need to address international disputes through dialogue and international law. “The European Union reiterates its fundamental commitment to the security of Israel, including with regard to current and emerging threats in the region”, the spokesperson said in a statement.
