EU Tells Israel to Reverse Move to Cut Off Palestinian Banks
The EU on Wednesday urged Israel to undo a move by a far-right minister that threatens to paralyze Palestinian financial institutions. Finance minister Bezalel Smotrich announced Tuesday that Israel had cancelled a waiver allowing its banks to work with Palestinian ones. "The European Union is deeply concerned by the instruction by Israel's finance minister Smotrich to cancel the waiver on cooperation with Palestinian banks, which could cut them off from the Israeli financial system, devastate an already crippled Palestinian economy, and may lead to the collapse of the Palestinian Authority," EU spokesman Anouar El Anouni said. "The EU calls on Israel to revert this decision immediately and to refrain from any action that could lead to the collapse of the Palestinian authority." The Palestinian financial and banking system is dependent on the regular renewal of the Israeli waiver. It protects Israeli banks from potential legal action relating to transactions with their Palestinian counterparts, for instance in relation to 'financing terror'.

US-Russian Talks Shift to Moscow Amid Rising Tensions
Russia's new ambassador to Washington, Alexander Darchiev, has revealed that US-Russian talks will move to Moscow from Istanbul, telling the state TASS news agency that these talks aim to resolve bilateral issues. Darchiev noted that rebuilding Russian-American relations remains a distant goal. He added that anti-Russian factions in Congress and the US 'deep state' hinder this process. Darchiev confirmed that the next negotiations will happen soon in Moscow. Challenges in US-Russian Relations The Ukraine war has caused a major confrontation between Moscow and the West, the worst since the Cold War. Diplomats in Moscow and Washington agree that relations have never been worse, a sentiment echoed in 2024. The Ukraine war has intensified global tensions and strained US-Russian relations. This conflict has led to urgent diplomatic efforts to prevent further escalation and maintain global stability. The Trump administration views the Ukraine conflict as a proxy war between the US and Russia as President Trump has repeatedly warned about the potential for this conflict to escalate into a world war. He emphasizes the need for cautious and strategic diplomacy to avoid further escalation. Short link : Post Views: 27 Related Stories
