O deputado europeu Paulo Casaca colocou por escrito à Comissão Europeia a questão sobre que mecanismos estão planeados para assegurar que a ajuda Europeia não seja desviada para a promoção de actividades terroristas nos Territórios Palestinianos, como informa a web do European Friends of Israel:
«At the end of December, a truck was caught at one of the crossing points in Judea and Samaria carrying approximately 6.5 tons of Potassium Nitrate. The Potassium Nitrate was disguised in sugar bags, and was intended for use by terrorists in the Gaza Strip. Potassium Nitrate is a banned substance in the Gaza Strip and the Judea and Samaria region due to its use by terrorists for the manufacturing of explosives and Qassam rockets. The terror organizations disguised the Potassium Nitrate in sugar bags that were marked as being part of the humanitarian aid provided by the European Union. This attempt shows how the terror organizations exploit the humanitarian aid that is delivered to the Palestinian population in the Gaza Strip with Israel's approval.
Paulo Casaca, MEP, Member of EFI, tabled a question to the Commission in order to figure out what are the mechanisms planned to ensure that the European aid is not derailed for promotion of terrorist activities in the Palestinian Territories.»
