Trade Agreements: Israel
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, (a) when and (b) where the next round of negotiations for a Free Trade Agreement with Israel will take place.
Answered by Mr Douglas Alexander
On 29 July 2024, the Secretary of State announced the Government’s intention to deliver negotiations with the Gulf Cooperation Council, India, Israel, South Korea, Switzerland, and Turkey. The Government continues its review of the objectives for these negotiations with Israel.
We welcome the 15 January 2025 announcement of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas.
