\u201cKristna \u00e4r den mest f\u00f6rf\u00f6ljda religi\u00f6sa gruppen i v\u00e4rlden, och denna f\u00f6rf\u00f6ljelse \u00e4r s\u00e4rskilt allvarlig i Mellan\u00f6stern. Sedan Assads fall och makt\u00f6vertagandet av Ahmed al-Sharaa och HTS-islamisterna har situationen f\u00f6r kristna i Syrien f\u00f6rs\u00e4mrats dramatiskt. Trots detta rullar EU ut r\u00f6da mattan f\u00f6r de nya makthavarna i Damaskus och lovar dem miljarder. Det \u00e4r oacceptabelt.<\/p>\n
Hotet \u00e4r dock inte begr\u00e4nsat till Syrien. Kristna tvingas ocks\u00e5 p\u00e5 flykt i andra delar av Mellan\u00f6stern, dels av islamistiska sk\u00e4l, dels genom etnopolitiskt motiverade landbeslag. P\u00e5 V\u00e4stbanken driver radikala israeliska bos\u00e4ttare ut palestinska kristna fr\u00e5n sina byar. Till och med den sista n\u00e4stan helt kristna byn, Taybeh, \u00e4r h\u00e5rt drabbad. Lokala pr\u00e4ster som Bashar Fawadleh, den latinske patriarken Pierbattista Pizzaballa och Vatikanen har upprepade g\u00e5nger f\u00f6rd\u00f6mt det eskalerande v\u00e5ldet i starka ordalag, liksom Israels f\u00f6re detta premi\u00e4rminister Naftali Bennett.<\/p>\n
Skyddet av kristna i Mellan\u00f6stern m\u00e5ste ha h\u00f6gsta prioritet och m\u00e5ste bli ett icke-f\u00f6rhandlingsbart villkor i v\u00e5r utrikes- och utvecklingspolitik. De som f\u00f6rf\u00f6ljer kristna f\u00e5r inte uppvaktas och finansieras av Bryssel och Berlin.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
