EU foreign ministers meet to debate suspending trade agreement with Israel

EU foreign ministers gathered in Luxembourg to discuss the bloc's relationship with Israel, including whether to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which has been in force since 2000. Spain, Ireland, and Slovenia are pushing for suspension citing human rights violations in Gaza and the West Bank, while Germany, Hungary, and the Czech Republic oppose drastic action. The agreement includes a human rights clause, Article 2, which critics argue Israel has violated.
