That does not necessarily mean we do not do the right thing, and we have increased our humanitarian aid to Gaza and Palestine. We have provided additional funding to the International Criminal Court so it can fund the investigation into war crimes that may have been committed in the Palestinian territories. We will continue to press the matter at UN and EU levels. As the Deputy knows, when it comes to sanctions, I strongly take the view that if they are done, they should be done on a multilateral basis. The point of sanctions is that they are supposed to do more harm to the country being sanctioned than the country imposing them. That should only be done on a multilateral basis, acting in concert with other countries.
