Watch: 'The criminals here are not Hamas...The criminals are Europeans'

Yanis Varoufakis, the former finance minister of Greece, says he will not condemn Hamas after its attack on Israel, and compares the siege imposed on Gaza to the apartheid in South Africa.

In an interview, Varoufakis said the criminals were not Hamas, nor the Israeli settlers, but rather Europeans who he said "have been complicit in a crime against humanity by remaining silent when there’s no trouble or when people are dying outside the view of the cameras especially if it involves Palestinians".
