英国、法国和加拿大宣布禁止进口以色列约旦河西岸定居点产品1。英国外交大臣埃德·米利班德表示,英国认为巴勒斯坦人正在遭受种族清洗1。以色列外交部长吉迪恩·萨阿尔随之宣布关闭英国驻东耶路撒冷领事馆并禁止部分英国官员入境1。
澳大利亚选择了不同的道路。澳大利亚外长黄英贤表示"澳大利亚此时不追求全面进口禁令"1,拒绝加入英国的全面贸易禁令2。澳大利亚正在协调国际伙伴推出有针对性的制裁措施1。根据数据,以色列2023年是澳大利亚第49大双向经济伙伴,贸易额约14亿澳元1。约旦河西岸定居点主要生产农产品,包括枣、柑橘、草本植物和葡萄酒1。
联合国、巴勒斯坦和大多数国家认为定居点在国际法上非法,而以色列对此有争议1。此外,英国宣布不再参与美国主导的加沙协调任务1。
The United Kingdom, France, and Canada have announced bans on importing products from Israeli settlements in the West Bank.1 In response, Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Saar declared the closure of the British consulate in East Jerusalem and announced restrictions on entry for certain British officials.1
UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband stated that Britain believes Palestinians are experiencing ethnic cleansing.1 The UN, Palestinian authorities, and most nations consider the settlements illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this assessment.1 The West Bank settlements primarily produce agricultural goods including dates, citrus fruits, herbs, and wine.1
Australia has declined to join this comprehensive trade ban despite preparing new targeted sanctions measures against Israel.1 Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong stated that "Australia at this time is not pursuing a comprehensive import ban," while confirming that Australia is coordinating with international partners on focused sanctions.1 In 2023, Israel ranked as Australia's 49th largest two-way trade partner, with bilateral trade valued at approximately 1.4 billion Australian dollars.1 The UK announced it will no longer participate in US-led coordination efforts regarding Gaza.1
