A delegation led by Yossi Dagan, head of the Samaria Regional Council, visited Prague to garner support against potential European Union sanctions targeting Israeli settlements. Dagan met with Czech politicians, including Deputy Chairman of the Senate the Deputy Chairman of the Czech Senate and members of parliament Miloslav Janolic and Denis Dosanský, who expressed solidarity with the residents of Samaria and their desire to preserve their culture and heritage. The discussions focused on opposing measures that could harm Israeli settlements economically and politically, and explored forming a coalition of European politicians against such sanctions.
Dagan presented maps of Judea and Samaria, emphasizing the region's security importance for Israel and its implications for European safety, particularly in countering radical Islamism. The Czech parliamentarians affirmed their support for continued cooperation and strengthening friendly relations between the two nations. However, these statements represent political backing and do not constitute an official Czech government decision to block EU sanctions, which would require a government stance.
This visit is part of a broader diplomatic effort to counter boycotts of Israeli settlements. Israel is seeking allies within the EU, and the Czech Republic is considered a traditionally friendly nation. Dagan is also engaging with Slovenian officials to expand the circle of European opponents to boycotts. He thanked Czech politicians for their support and highlighted the need for joint efforts to counter international isolation attempts, also acknowledging the contributions of Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs staff, and Ambassador Amir Weissbrod.
