In a sharp policy shift, Slovenia has suspended all arms-related trade with Israel, deepening its stance on the Gaza conflict and aligning with its earlier recognition of a Palestinian state according to the state news agency STA citing a government statement on 31 July.
Slovenia has announced an embargo on the export, import and transit of arms to and from Israel, after a government session chaired by Prime Minister Robert Golob. The move comes two weeks after the country declared several Israeli ministers persona non grata.
"This is the first time a European country has taken such action," Golob was quoted as saying by the state news agency STA.
The decision adds to Slovenia's evolving policy on the Israel-Palestine conflict. In June last year, the country officially recognised a Palestinian state. Since then, it has consistently advocated for a ceasefire and stepped-up humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The arms embargo comes amid growing international friction over the Gaza conflict. Israel has criticised recent moves by France, Britain and Canada, who signalled they may soon recognise Palestinian statehood. An Israeli government spokesperson said such gestures would be seen as "rewarding Hamas" for its 7 October 2023 assault on Israeli territory.
Meanwhile, diplomatic efforts continue. On Thursday, U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff held talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, aimed at reviving negotiations for a Gaza ceasefire and addressed the deepening humanitarian crisis.
