"I welcome the adoption of this resolution on EU policy on the occupied Palestinian territories. This text provides a comprehensive account of reality on the ground and openly denounces the rampant expansion of Israeli settlements, the extremism of the settlers, the expulsions and the demolition of Palestinian houses. I welcome the fact that Parliament unequivocally calls on the Israeli authorities to end the expansion of the settlements and once again reiterates the official position of the European Union, which is that Europe will not recognise any unilateral change to the borders of the future state of Palestine. I regret, however, that this resolution lacks ambition. Parliament does not openly recognise that the existing control mechanism – the 2005 technical agreement concluded by the Commission with the Israeli authorities – has never been effectively implemented and that products from the Israeli settlements continue to be imported into the European market labelled ‘made in Israel’. Instead of calling on the Commission to create a new legally binding control mechanism, Parliament is content to request that the Union’s existing legislation be implemented."@en1
