Trade Between Ireland and the Palestinian Territories: Discussion
Mr. Hugh Lovatt:
I will add that, in general, when one looks at public opinion, it is notable that people in many European countries are way ahead of where their governments are. There is far more support for measures targeting Israeli settlements than perhaps some governments would seem to indicate. That also applies to the US, which is another conversation. There is a support base so the question is, if the public is there, is it time for governments to build on that and to lead?
