After that, Sweden claimed that what had happened in the Gaza Strip was genocide.  Turkey mentioned that Israel could not be seen as a real partner because they were intolerant. Hungary was asking if Israel would ever feel guilty about the innocent civilians who they killed. Israel responded by saying that they had feelings of guilt but did not want to focus on it, as it would not be good for the country. Israel emphasised their position with the statement that what Hamas is doing is not the same as what Israel is doing. They also said that the war was not because of religion but because Hamas killed the people in Israel. After that, Russia gave its opening speech, while Israel demanded an apology, which Israel also received. In their speech the Russian Federation mentioned, that the United States would prefer Jews in the Middle East and that they would not support this, as they believe that all religious groups in the Middle East should be protected. In addition they stated that in order to get peace in the Middle East, one has to seek the conversation. Then there was the question why Russia did not try this with Ukraine.
