"We want to prepare young Palestinians for sustainable agriculture," Lubetkin said.

This Friday, Foreign Minister Mario Lubetkin presented a new international cooperation proposal focused on Palestine. The plan aims to include young people from the West Bank in a sustainable agriculture training program, promoted by the FAO and led by Denmark. The initiative seeks to train these young people to develop startups linked to the agricultural sector, considered fundamental to the region's economic growth.

During an interview with M24, Lubetkin explained that Uruguay is interested in joining the Danish-led program. The intention is for young Palestinians to come to the country to train in sustainable agriculture, where Uruguay has experience and can contribute technical knowledge. "We would like to bring some young Palestinians from the West Bank to train them in sustainable agriculture, something we have experience in and can share," the foreign minister said.

Lubetkin also emphasized Uruguay's commitment to humanitarian assistance. He noted that discussions are ongoing with representatives of the Palestinian Authority to ensure that the aid sent efficiently reaches those most in need. Regarding the distribution of food and medicine, he stressed that humanitarian truces must be accompanied by long-term solutions. "It's not just about providing immediate aid, but also about guaranteeing a future for Palestine and its young people," he added.

On the other hand, the minister also responded to internal criticism within the Broad Front regarding the conflict in Palestine. In response to questions about the use of the term "genocide" when referring to Israel's actions, Lubetkin defended the official position of remaining within the framework defined by UN resolutions and focusing on concrete measures. He emphasized that the priority is to move forward with agricultural cooperation projects, avoiding internal debates over terminology.

Finally, the foreign minister urged that national political debates not interfere with the commitment to solidarity with Palestine. Lubetkin emphasized that the government's goal is to provide practical and effective solutions for the well-being of the Palestinian people. "Our government is committed to humanitarian aid and finding viable solutions that benefit the Palestinians, and part of that aid will be to contribute to their agricultural and business development," he concluded.
