British foreign minister Ed Miliband condemned as “regrettable and damaging” Israel’s decision to order the closure of the the British consulate in occupied East Jerusalem as retaliation for London-led Western sanctions over illegal Israeli settler violence.
– “We anticipated this might happen because we saw other countries, the Dutch, for example, who had announced sanctions, who had seen these reprisals from Israel. I think they’re regrettable and damaging,” Miliband told BBC Radio.
