UK plans to impose new sanctions on Israeli West Bank settlements, which may affect relations with US President Trump
British Foreign Secretary Miliband will announce a new sanctions mechanism against Jewish settlements in the West Bank on Tuesday, which mainly targets settlements in the West Bank and does not fully affect trade and security relations between Britain and Israel. British diplomats have privately informed the United States that the relevant sanctions are symbolic measures, and the Burnham government hopes to demonstrate a tougher stance against Israel within the party and among voters than former Prime Minister Stamer.
