The European Commission has presented a robust package of targeted sanctions on extremist Israeli Cabinet ministers and violent settlers and entities supporting impunity in the occupied West Bank, along with a proposal to partially suspend trade concessions with Israel, said the EU foreign policy chief. Kaja Kallas said that all member states agree that the situation in Gaza is “untenable”, while also cautioning that “dangerous developments” in the occupied West Bank threaten the viability of a two-state solution.
