The communications advisor to Ismail Haniyeh, the leader of Hamas, Taher al-Nono, has demanded an end to the EU’s “double-standard policy.”
He told Reuters, “Yahya Sinwar has no assets or money, neither in Palestine nor outside of it. These are ridiculous and silly sanctions.”
“Although the idea of imposing sanctions on resistance leaders and Hamas, which is resisting the [Israeli] occupation as granted by international law, shows bias to the occupation, such a decision has no value against Hamas.”
As we previously reported, Sinwar has been added to the EU “terrorist” list and has had his assets frozen by the 27-nation bloc.
