Strasbourg, 18 Jumadil Awwal 1438/15 February 2017 (MINA) – The European Parliament condemned late Tuesday the controversial “Regulation Law” which was recently adopted by the Israeli Knesset with the aim of legalizing settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories.

Members of the European Parliament declared their total rejection of the recent adoption of the “Regulation Law” by the Israeli Knesset, calling for imposing sanctions on Israel, the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reported.

The MEP Ian Borg said that the law provides for “legalizing” numerous settlements and outposts previously considered as illegal under international law.

For her part, MEP Margrete Auken stressed the need to stop the EU support to Israel.

The EU-funded projects all failed due to the Israeli obstacles, she added, calling on the EU to recognize Palestine as a state.

Earlier last week, the Israeli Knesset adopted the “Regulation law” which will legalize the seizure of Palestinian property rights and effectively authorizes the confiscation of privately owned Palestinian land in the occupied territory.(T/R04/RS05)
