Humza Yousaf Slams Gaza 'Ethnic Cleansing' by Israel & UK Government 'Complicity' | Full Interview

Feb 12, 2025 | Former First Minister of Scotland, Humza Yousaf, joins Global News Today with Tom Burges Watson for an exclusive interview to discuss the Gaza ceasefire and the recent threats made by US President Donald Trump and supported by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Hamas, demanding the immediate release of the rest of the hostages by Saturday, otherwise "all hell will break out." President Trump had also wanted to turn Gaza into a "Riviera of the Middle East" and says that all Palestinians should move to neighboring countries.

Yousaf slams these ideas put forward by the US president and says its simply "ethnic cleansing," stating many countries are being cowardly in not labeling Israel's treatment of Palestinians in Gaza as such.

Yousaf also attacks Keir Starmer and the UK government for being "complicit" in Israel's "ethnic cleansing," suggesting that the language they use to describe Israel's actions is limited and the fact they continue to send weapons to Israel which are used against the Palestinians.
