Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade

General Scheme of Israeli Settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Prohibition of Importation of Goods) Bill 2025: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Ms Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh:

As the ICJ opinion has made absolutely clear, the obligation not to aid and assist Israel in its violations of peremptory international law is an obligation that binds international organisations as it binds states. That not only includes the United Nations, but also the European Union, so there could indeed be consequences in principle for the European Union's breach of its own obligations.
