Israel slams planned EU sanctions on settlers as 'arbitrary and political'

Israel on Monday condemned the European Union's move to impose new sanctions on Israeli settlers over violence against Palestinians, asserting that Jews have the right to settle in the occupied West Bank.

"The European Union has chosen, in an arbitrary and political manner, to impose sanctions on Israeli citizens and entities because of their political views and without any basis," Foreign Minister Gideon Saar posted on X.

"Israel has stood, stands, and will continue to stand for the right of Jews to settle in the heart of our homeland."
