June 5, 2026 - When Israeli diplomat Waleed Gadban attempted to deliver his speech at the UN International Labour Organization conference, he was disrupted by government labor ministers, union representatives and even some employer's organisation representatives, from many different countries, banging their tables to show their disapproval of Israel even being included in the conference. Some of the delegations even stood up to display the Palestinian flag during the protest..
The Israeli was unable to deliver his speech, showing how much the reputation of Israel has been destroyed, even among diplomats, and how important it is to fight for internationalism in our unions and political organizations. Cooperation with Israel must be opposed everywhere, on all levels. [video]
