UK Foreign Secretary Miliband Announces 'Comprehensive Reset' of Israel Policy

Ed Miliband, in his first Commons address as foreign secretary, pledged a 'comprehensive reset' of UK policy toward Israel, including measures to prevent British companies from supporting illegal West Bank settlements such as the E1 plan. This marks a notable shift from prior UK positions, though specific enforcement mechanisms remain unspecified. The move could strain UK-Israel relations and signal broader European alignment on settlement opposition.
