Stop selling weapons to human rights violator

 
EU: Stop Fueling the Conflict in Yemen

Dear friends,
The Saudi-Arabian led bombing of Yemen has had a devastating impact, killing thousands of civilians and destroying essential infrastructures. Evidence shows that attacks in Yemen have violated the fundamental rules of international humanitarian law.
It seems that many countries are simply turning a blind eye — unconcerned even — to the consequences that their arms sales to Saudi Arabia have created. Several EU countries, for example, are still supplying Saudi Arabia with weapons, military aircraft, firearms and even cluster-bombs that are later used to kill civilians.
Back in 2016, the European Parliament issued a resolution asking the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the Vice President of the Commission to impose an EU arms embargo against Saudi Arabia. But since then, nothing has changed.
But people still die in Yemen, and the surviving population faces a huge humanitarian and health crisis.
Thank you,
 Alex B.
