UK to Sanction Goods from Illegal Israeli Settlements in West Bank
🇬🇧 LONDON — Britain sanctioning Israel's settlements the same week it sanctioned Iran. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: UK expanded Iran sanctions Monday — now targets Israeli settlement exports. Both moves in one week signals London recalibrating independently of Washington. Settlement sanctions carry WTO and trade-agreement implications; they also pressure the EU to match. Italy and France face harder abstention math on arms votes when a close ally moves first.
