Sanctions
Pressure governments to impose sanctions on Israel until it complies with international law.
Sanctions campaigns must pressure the government and the EU to fulfil their human rights obligations. They must help dismantle the Israeli apartheid system and occupation.
The government must support the European initiative to suspend the trade agreement with Israel.
In addition, the government must work to:
- Exclude Israel from all international forums (the UN, FIFA, etc.).
- Introduce entry bans in Denmark for Israeli politicians and military personnel accused of war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide.
This has happened in other countries, including the Netherlands, which has imposed entry bans on the two Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, who are accused of complicity in genocide and crimes against humanity.
The government must furthermore stop direct and indirect arms transport, import and export to and from Israel:
- Prohibit the export and sale of goods and technology covered by the EU common list of military equipment when Israel is the actual or potential end user.
- Prohibit the import and purchase of goods and technology covered by the EU list of military equipment from Israel and Israeli companies.
- Prohibit transport carried out by Denmark or Danish companies of goods and technology covered by the EU list of military equipment to Israel.
Effective sanctions must be implemented by the government. Campaigns for sanctions should therefore be directed at the government and the entire Parliament.
