Israel refused to go to the country to two MPs from Great Britain, which declared that they were part of the British delegation. The authorities accused them of “they have plans to spread hatred against Israel.” The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in London David Lamma described this situation as “unacceptable”. A sharp discussion between him and the conservative leader started around this event.
Israel On Saturday, he refused to enter the country to two MPs of the British Labor Party, which claimed that they were part of the parliamentary delegation. The Israeli Ministry of Immigration, quoted by the British Sky News portal, accused of MPs Yuan Yang and Abtisam Mohamed “Plans to document the activities of security forces and spreading hatred against Israel.”
The Israeli embassy in Great Britain, in turn, stated that the deputies were refused entry because “they directed false allegations to Israel, actively participated in promoting sanctions against Israeli ministers and supported campaigns aimed at boycotting Israel.”
Head of British diplomacy: unacceptable
The head of British diplomacy David Lamma reacted to the situation, who called the whole situation “unacceptable”. “I made it clear to my counterparts in the Israeli government that this is not a way of treating British parliamentarians,” Lammy wrote in a statement.
The leader of the opposition Conservative Party Kemi Badenoch said on Sunday in the “Sunday Morning” program that “is not surprised” by the arrest of deputies and that “every country should be able to control its borders”.
Lamma reacted to social media to these words. “It is shameful that you support another country for stopping and deporting two British MPs. Do you talk the same about the MPs of the Conservative Party who were forbidden to enter China?” he asked.
“This government will continue to defend the rights of our parliamentarians to express their views, regardless of their party affiliation,” he added.
In response, Badenoch wrote that “unlike China, Israel is our ally and democracy.” “A good foreign minister would be able to distinguish it,” she added.
