Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said on Friday, May 24, that he had decided to “sever the connection” between Spain’s diplomatic mission and Palestinians in the occupied West Bank over Madrid’s recognition of a Palestinian state.
“I have decided to sever the connection between Spain’s representation in Israel and the Palestinians, and to prohibit the Spanish consulate in Jerusalem from providing services to Palestinians from the West Bank,” Katz said in a post on X. It was not immediately clear how Israel would carry out the threat.
Asked by Agence France-Presse (AFP) about the practicalities and consequences of Katz’s announcement, the Foreign Ministry did not immediately comment. Katz said his decision was made “in response to Spain’s recognition of a Palestinian state and the anti-Semitic call by Spain’s deputy prime minister to (…) ‘liberate Palestine from the river to the sea.’”
Not an apartheid state folks. Definitely no apartheid going on here
It’s bigger than Apartheid. It’s Apartheid supported by most of the so called “civilized”, proponents of “human rights” western world.
There’s no consequences to be had with their blessings.
