Top minister: Labeling settlement products is veiled anti-Semitism – Yuval Steinitz slams EU for not applying same standard to Chinese-controlled Tibet or Turkish-occupied Cyprus | The Times of Israel
AP — A senior cabinet minister on Tuesday condemned a European Union plan to begin labeling West Bank settlement products, saying the move amounted to “disguised anti-Semitism.”
The EU is expected to order the labeling, possibly this week, in what is widely seen as a show of displeasure over Israel’s continued expansion of settlements in territory sought by the Palestinians for a future state. The EU already bars goods made in settlements from receiving customs exemptions given to goods made inside Israel.
