EU Ambassador Andrew Standley addressed the media in advance of his retirement, "The EU labels products from the West Bank in order to allow consumers to make an economic decision based on ideology, not as an act of anti-Semitism. The Israeli government has approved this for the last decade. Long-term settlements in the West Bank are not conducive to security, only a two-state solution is. Bottom line, Israel already accepted relinquishing the entire West Bank in 1947, so I advise you to choose between Hebron and Haifa."
