The Portuguese Foreign Minister, João Gomes Cravinho, and his counterparts in Ireland, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Spain and Sweden, signed a letter to Olivér Várhelyi, European Commissioner for the Neighbourhood and Enlargement Policy, according to Politico.
In the document, dated April 8, the signatories defend that the objective of the European Union (EU), and of the international community, should be to “strengthen the Palestinian authority”.

The reason the Palestinians have not received the funds is due to "antisemitic language" and "incitement to violence" contained in Palestinian school books. They don't actually contain anything of the sort but Hungary's man in the European Commission managed to convince the EU otherwise.
Meanwhile the EU continues to support Israeli oppression of Palestinians by sending funds directly to the Israeli Defence Ministry. The funds do have human rights conditions attached, something Netanyahu complained about at the time, but it does free up money for the misnamed Israeli Defence Force.
