Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sharply criticized Washington's recent moves to impose sanctions against Israeli settlers. Netanyahu fears that Biden's order could have unprecedented consequences for all settlement activity in the West Bank.
The sanctions imply the blocking of property and finances in the United States, a ban on interaction between American citizens and these individuals, as well as a number of visa restrictions. The President of the U.S. intends to sign a decree on sanctions against individuals committing terrorist and security-undermining activities in theWest Bank.
