Israel tells EU any sanctions will receive 'appropriate response'

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar warned the European Union against taking any action against Israel, stating that such moves would harm Europe's own interests. He characterized the recommendations from the college of Commissioners, led by President Ursula von der Leyen, as "morally and politically distorted." Saar asserted that any action taken against Israel would receive an appropriate response, expressing hope that it would not be necessary to use them.
