Denmark opposes Israel arms embargo as UK wavers

International human rights organizations in collaboration with pro-Palestinian legal groups have recently been trying to change the policies through legal petitions of Denmark and the UK - two of the few major European countries that have not yet announced an arms embargo on Israel. While the Danish parliament had previously resolutely rejected a proposal to stop the export of arms and spare parts to Israel, in the UK, the new Labor government indicated that it is considering imposing a ban on the sale of arms to Israel in the coming days.
