UK Coordinates Joint Statement on Israel Involving Around 50 Countries

DID Press: Around 50 countries are preparing a joint statement criticizing Israel at the initiative of the United Kingdom, with the declaration expected to be issued later this week.

Israel’s Channel 12 television reported that the British government is leading efforts to coordinate the diplomatic initiative involving nearly 50 countries.

The participation of such a large number of countries reflects growing political and diplomatic pressure on Israel. However, the statement’s impact will depend on its content and whether the positions expressed translate into practical measures.
