The Spanish government has decided to join the 34-nation coalition known as “The Hague Group” led by South Africa and Colombia, which aims to impose new economic sanctions on Israel.
Madrid also confirmed its participation in the donor group responsible for financing the Palestinian Authority, alongside countries such as France and the United Kingdom.
The group aims at supporting international efforts to stop the was on Gaza and “end Israeli’s impunity.”
According to European news media the decision was announced on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly’s meetings in New York.
The coalition’s program includes a range of measures, such as banning the export of dual-use equipment to Israel, prohibiting the transit of military shipments through member states’ ports, and terminating public contracts with institutions that support the occupation.
