## Resource

Spain’s foreign minister is escalating pressure on the EU to impose sanctions—including travel bans—on Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, citing their inflammatory rhetoric and violations of international law. While several EU nations like Spain, Ireland, and the Netherlands have already restricted their entry, a unified EU action remains stalled, blocked by Hungary and the Czech Republic. Spain argues that as democracies, member states must hold their leaders to account, and is also pushing for EU measures against goods from illegal Israeli settlements, warning that unchecked expansion threatens any future two-state solution.
