EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini said the European bloc does not recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, a day after Tel Aviv said the Golan would remain part of Israel "forever.", according to BBC.
Mogherini's remarks on Tuesday came after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a cabinet meeting for the first time in the occupied Golan Heights and ruled out returning them to Syria.
The top European diplomat said the EU does not recognize Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories after the 1967 war. "And this is a common consolidated position of the European Union and its member states," she said.
