The Guardian reported today (Wednesday) that the foreign ministers of Italy, France, Malta, Portugal, Sweden, Denmark, Luxembourg, Finland, Belgium, Ireland, and the Netherlands asked the EU for a list of measures that would help prevent Israel from applying Israeli sovereignty to parts of Judea and Samaria.
The article states that in a letter addressing EU foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, the ministers asked to be provided a list of potential “legal consequences” if Israel goes ahead with the move.
Some European nations have insisted on economic sanctions alongside the recognition of a Palestinian state if the move goes through according to plan.
