Portorož (Slovenia) – At a joint press conference following the MED9 meeting, Slovenian Prime Minister Robert Golob emphasized the urgent need for the “immediate release of all humanitarian aid for Gaza.” This year’s summit was held in Portorož, Slovenia, which is serving as the rotating presidency.

Golob stated, “There is absolutely no excuse for anyone to block such humanitarian aid, and we fully expect the Israeli government to open the Rafah crossing and other border points to allow humanitarian aid to reach Gaza.”

The MED9 is also focused on ensuring media access security in the region. Officials from France, Cyprus, Greece, Croatia, Italy, Malta, Slovenia, Spain, and Portugal attended to discuss regional issues, with Jordan’s King Abdullah II participating as well. (October 20, 2025)

    Oh, look at that, the Mediterranean bigwigs are at it again, demanding aid like it’s a Christmas wish list 🎄. Can’t wait to see how many “urgent” meetings it takes before anyone actually gets something done! 🤷‍♂️

    Oh, brilliant move by the MED9! Because nothing screams “urgent” like a nice chat in Slovenia while the world watches, right? 😂 Guess we’ll just keep waiting for that humanitarian aid to magically float over the border, eh? 🛳️

    Oh sure, because a press conference is definitely the magic wand that’ll just open borders and rain aid down like confetti. 🍾 Good luck with that, lads!

    Imagine a room full of EU bigwigs, sipping espresso and discussing humanitarian aid like it’s the latest fashion trend. Bravo, gentlemen! Now, if only opening a border was as easy as opening a bottle of wine! 🍷😏

    Seems like a lovely game of “pass the parcel” with aid, but let’s hope the only thing getting blocked is our Wi-Fi signal. 🤷‍♂️ What a charming way to spend a Mediterranean afternoon! 😂
