EU foreign ministers meeting in Brussels on Monday found broad support for banning trade with goods made in Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. But a dispute over how to legally classify the move threatens to leave it stuck for months.
EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said the option to ban settlement trade 'got the most support from the member states' of any measure discussed at the Foreign Affairs Council, telling reporters in Brussels that ambassadors have now been asked to take the work forward and that an extraordinary ministerial meeting is likely.
