French President Emmanuel Macron has reiterated his threat to cut the 1995 EU-Israel Association Agreement, stating it is "legitimate to question the future" of the pact. He cited Israel's actions in Gaza and violations of Lebanon's territorial sovereignty as the context for this stance. Macron made it clear that if Israel continues its current policy, consequences will follow. This follows recent internal EU discord over the agreement, with Germany and Italy previously opposing such a move.
