Burnham defends UK sanctions over Israeli settlement firms
Original: Prime Minister Andy Burnham has defended UK sanctions on companies involved with Israeli settlements in the occupied Pal
Prime Minister Andy Burnham has defended UK sanctions imposed on companies involved with Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territory. Critics are pressing him to go further, asking when his government will act against companies named in the revised United Nations Human Rights Council database of settlement-linked businesses, citing firms such as Delek Group Ltd, an Israeli services and utilities company.
Why now: Burnham's defence of sanctions has reignited debate over whether the UK will act against all UN-listed settlement-linked companies.
