Foreign Ministry slams Canadian court ruling on West Bank settlement wines
The Foreign Ministry condemns a Canadian court’s ruling that wines made in West Bank settlements cannot be labelled “Made in Israel,” saying it singles out the Jewish state and provides backing to boycott efforts.
“The Canadian court’s decision concerning labeling of Israel products encourages and lends support to boycotts and the BDS movement. Israel objects to this,” the ministry says.
“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Israeli Embassy in Canada will continue to act against discriminatory treatment and the singling out of Israel in the matter of product labeling in Canada,” it adds.
