Unlike the hypocrital western leaders, this man who has the courage, the dignity and the morals to say things the way they are. Your deserve all the respect for your courageous stance. May God protect you.

[radinz]

Yanis is one of the few dignified humans that gives us some hope for the future of humanity - society should be grateful he has the sense of justice and sense of moral duty to speak publicly about facts amongst the bias noise of commercial media.

[daliamerhi]

Thank you Yanis for being a voice for the voiceless in Gaza, we will not let them die in the dark.

[AbdulAziz-pgnb]

Thank God this kind of kind hearted and good gentleman are still exists in European countries...hats off to you sir, today's world needs the honest people like you.👏👏👏

[denisemorton]

Solidarity from Scotland. Solidarity with the peoples of Palestine.

[zahraabdul]

Thank you for your support for Palestine

[andersstook]

We only have spineless and ignorant politicians left here in the EU with a few exceptions like some Irish MP´s who always does a good job .

[smriti]

I am from Nepal. I am so grateful that you share unbiased views. Pls keep doing this. The world needs more people like you

[electricious]

Thank you Yianis. WAR CRIMES ARE NOT JUSTIFIED!!

[funbarsolaris]

The fall from grace of the EU is one of the most shocking things I've witnesses in my life. They have lost anything of what Europe was supposed to stand for and have become a force for evil - nothing more than an empty vassal of the US Empire. Good on Yanis for speaking up, one of the few good men left here in Europe

[andykyriakides]

' Israel has a right to defend itself ' ?? And who will defend the Palestinian people ?? Or don't they have that right .

[jerseypooh]

I’m British and I stand with the innocents of Gaza and also all innocents in Israel. This is beyond disgusting and evil, genocide is completely unnecessary and unacceptable end of. What more can you say? Peace to all people and all life on earth. We need love and compassion not hate but we must stand up for injustice and there is NO reason to do this to any people in the world.

[belldream]

I am from the EU but I am not EU, my voice is for Palestine! I come from Romania. I fled illegally because the regime became too harsh for several years. But that was far from what the Palestinians experienced for decades. But what happened to Ceausescu? He was assassinated. Where repression and dictatorship are simply resorted to, sooner or later there will be aggression and escalation. I think it is very difficult for Westerners who have lived in a democracy to understand this. The Palestinians, unfortunately, have no opportunities, especially as the screw is tight, while the Israelis have always received support from the powerful. It was a David against Goliath with our consent. Although the EU is not against, but on Israel's side, most people will (I hope) realise (I hope) all these games of staging and interests and stop being manipulated.

[mevys]

We need people like him as our leaders!

[Simon-sruc]

Big up Yanis. I wish Europe had leaders like you...

[mourbouj]

This guy is a legend! to stand up for justice in middle of a hypocrite world it's not that easy, respect for Yanis 👏

[dignity_humanity]

Thank you for having the moral spine mister Varoufakis!
God bless you!

[folkeholmberg]

Yanis Varoufakis is allways sharp and bright in his analysis.

[hughiedavies]

Yanis is one of the few political voices prepared to stand up for the oppressed and criticise the oppressors. 👏

[Jorge.]

He's absolutely right. As portuguese I've never so disappointed and ashamed of the so called civilized world
