The head of the European Union's foreign policy, Josep Borrell, during a meeting with the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken at the State Department, said that the survival of the population in Gaza is at risk.
"We must act. The very survival of the population in Gaza is at stake today ," said Borrell.
He thanked Blinken for his personal efforts to get humanitarian aid to Gaza, but also pressed for new humanitarian routes to Gaza.
" We have to clear the humanitarian link by sea, by air, that's good. This is not enough. You can't replace hundreds of trucks by sending parachutes. The most important thing is the opening of borders from the ground. And keep working, or start working for a two-state solution that both the US and the EU support. The only way for lasting peace ," said Borrell.
While air checkpoints avoid the often rigorous and lengthy screenings conducted at ground checkpoints, aid agencies say their drawbacks outweigh their benefits. They are more expensive, have limited distribution capacity and can lead to chaos.
The US is moving forward with a plan to set up a temporary pier off the coast of Gaza to deliver aid, but the Pentagon said it will take about 60 days to get it up and running.
