I am delighted to announce that the European Citizen Initiative (ECI) asking the EU to suspend the association agreement with Israel on human rights grounds has collected over one million signatures. The @EUCommission and the European Parliament have now a legal obligation to respond. 300K signatures were collected in less than one week!
I know this because six days ago I wrote a thread to explain how ECIs work and ask people to support this ECI in particular.

The collection of signatures continues until January 2027. The political goal should now be to make this the most successful ECI ever (I imagine this, since I am not involved in its organization). I think 3-4 million signatures is not unrealistic. As part of this goal, minimum thresholds should be achieved in more member states (minimum is 7, currently 10). 2/3

@alberto_cottica@mastodon.green @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu good work. I would have signed but the idiot electorate here decided to turn its back on the EU.
