Valtonen stated that discussions on imposing sanctions on Israel are ongoing within the EU and that such a decision would require the approval from all member states.
“Opinions are divided here, but the message is already quite strong that we must take clear action against Israel. Especially if the escalation continues from here and does not end,” Yle quoted Valtonen as saying.
The minister urged the EU to consider implementing additional sanctions on Israel and highlighted the possibility of extending the sanctions already imposed on Israeli settlers who seized Palestinian lands earlier this year, to include the country’s political decision-makers.
