UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham defended Britain’s ban on imports from Israeli settlements in the West Bank, saying the government had “shown leadership” despite a growing diplomatic dispute with Israel. Speaking in the House of Commons, Burnham said ministers had taken close advice from British security services and Foreign Office officials before imposing the measures, arguing that the potential collapse of the two-state solution posed a wider risk to Middle East stability. The move follows Israeli criticism of the UK government and reciprocal diplomatic measures, while lawmakers warned that the dispute could affect Britain’s security cooperation with Israel. #uk #britain #andyburnham #israel #ukisrael #westbank #israelsettlements #palestine #israelpalestine #twostatesolution #ukparliament #houseofcommons #ukpolitics #middleeast #diplomaticcrisis #sanctions #foreignpolicy #nationalsecurity #geopolitics #london Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and an
