In response to the European Union decision to label good originating in Yehuda, Shomron and the Golan Heights, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has instructed the Foreign Ministry to “reassess EU involvement in the diplomatic process between Israel and the PA (Palestinian Authority)”.

The announcement came on Sunday, 17 Kislev, a few hours before PM Netanyahu departed for Paris to attend the climate conference which is being attended by world leaders. It is reported that for the first time in a number of years, PM Netanyahu shook hands with PA (Palestinian Authority) leader Abu Mazen at the Paris conference.

In actuality, the move is symbolic as the EU involvement in the diplomatic process is for the most party symbolic and at present, the EU has not been an integral component of the process.
