Norway prepares bill imposing up to 3 years in prison for trade with Israeli settlements
The Norwegian government is preparing a bill that would impose up to three years in prison on those who trade with Israeli settlements that seize occupied Palestinian territories. The bill also aims to ban providing economic support and certain services to these settlements.
A bill prepared by the Norwegian government targeting those who trade with Israeli settlements that seize occupied Palestinian territories would impose up to three years in prison.
Norwegian official Eide said the regulation aims to prevent the transfer of economic support to these settlements. Eide said the plan would also ban the provision of certain services, in addition to trade.
Eide said Western countries had changed their stance toward Israelis who seize Palestinian land, arguing that Israel had grown accustomed to intimidating Western countries by accusing them in response to criticism of its human rights violations. Eide said this approach was no longer effective.
The bill is expected to be submitted to the Norwegian Parliament in the coming months.
Twelve countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Norway and Canada, announced on September 8 that they had decided to ban trade with Israeli settlements that seize occupied Palestinian territories.
