British official: Marking of settlement-produced goods controversial
None
Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow wrote to his Israeli counterpart, Reuven Rivlin, that conflict existed in Britain over the marking of products produced in settlements and that he could not take a stance on the matter.
Israeli MKs had sent a petition to Bercow asking that the products not be marked. Bercow said it was currently being considered by members of the British parliament. (Amnon Meranda)
