Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely visited the Binyamin and Samaria regions, following international attempts to boycott Israeli goods.

Chairman of the Yesha Council Avi Roeh said during the visit that “What was declared in Oslo as a new Middle East is being implemented here in the industries. It is here that the peace grows. The threats of labeling goods do not deeply hurt us financially, but it does hurt Israel’s independence and sovereignty.”
