EU: Our Treaties With Israel Apply Only To Pre-'67 Lines
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... foreign ministers strongly stated that all of the body's agreements with Israel only applied to the pre-1967 lines, as they spoke out on Monday against Israeli settlement plans including the development of E1. A diplomatic source told The Jerusalem Post that he feared some of the language in the council statement was placed there to lay the groundwork for labelling and possibly banning settlement products in the future. The EU said all of its agreements with Israel "must unequivocally and explicitly indicate their inapplicability to the territories occupied by Israel in 1967, namely the Golan Heights; the West Bank, including east Jerusalem; and the Gazoo Strip." The council called for full implementation of existing EU legislations and bilateral arrangements applicable to settlement products. Posted by: trailing wife 2012-12-11 |
