AGP Executive Report
Last update: 29 minutes agoIsrael-West Bank Sanctions: The UK, joined by France and Canada, is banning imports of goods from Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank and targeting settlement-linked services, while 12 countries total (including Poland) plan national restrictions or support EU-level curbs. The move follows Israel’s push for new settlement tenders in the E1 area and rising settler violence, with London calling it “ethnic cleansing” and warning it threatens the two-state solution. Diplomatic Fallout: Israel retaliated by ordering the closure of the UK consulate in Jerusalem/East Jerusalem and barring some UK visitors and officials. US Stance: US officials say Washington did not oppose the UK-led initiative, though it does not necessarily back the specific sanctions. Poland Angle: Poland is explicitly named among the countries backing trade restrictions, signaling tighter alignment with Western partners on settlement policy.
