Since September 22, 2026, the Netherlands have officially banned the import, purchase, and sale of products originating from Israeli settlements, in line with a decision made two weeks earlier by twelve countries, including France, aiming to restrict trade with these settlements deemed illegal under international law.
On the ground, in the Jordan Valley, one of the main agricultural areas of the settlements, the affected Israeli producers display marked indifference to these sanctions. They assert that they will adapt to this new situation by seeking to develop alternative commercial outlets outside the countries that have imposed these restrictions.
