EU: Israel trade terms not applicable to Palestinian areas

The top legal advisor to Europe's highest court on Friday said that preferential EU trade terms with Israel may not apply to goods and services emanating from the Palestinian territories.

 

"In Advocate General (Yves) Bot's opinion, products originating from the occupied territories are not entitled to preferential customs treatment" under a European Union agreement with Israel, the EU court advisor said a statement. Such opinions are not binding, but are almost always followed by the European courts. (AFP)
