In an interview with Diario El Salvador, the diplomat remarked that the conflict was not solved by the intervention of the United States, with its “unconditional support to Israel” and not as a mediator.
We want to be neighbors of the State of Israel, but we do not want to be occupied by it, is the official discourse, we bet on peaceful and popular resistance, but what we receive are bullets, he said.
The only thing Washington does is to unconditionally support the State of Israel, without knowing what is happening and without analyzing the origin of this conflict, he said.
It is important, he stressed, that there be calls for calm, to stop bombing, to open humanitarian corridors so that water, food and medicine can enter. Not as Mr. Biden is doing by sending his aircraft carriers, sending military aid to Israel. This is unacceptable and condemnable, he said.
Burini reiterated that the Zionist occupation is the essence of the problem and only its end will lead to a lasting peace.
The United States supports unconditionally with weapons and billions of dollars, we have lost confidence in this partner, which at the beginning was a partner in this peace process, but has not been neutral, he insisted at a time when US President Joe Biden is visiting Tel-Aviv as a sign of support for Israel.
