Jerusalem succeeded Monday in Brussels at thwarting a move to impose sanctions on Israel – in response to the fighting in Gaza – which did not result in a decision, after several key European Union countries expressed opposition to the initiative.
Spain, Ireland and Slovenia led the initiative to implement measures, including the suspension of the “association agreement” between Israel and the Union, however Germany, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Romania, Lithuania, Greece and other countries stood in opposition.
