Mogherini: EU recognizes Israel only within its pre-1967 boundaries

EU's Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini

Brussels (IINA) – European Union's Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini reiterated on Tuesday that the EU does not recognize Israel's claim to the Syrian Golan Heights, despite Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's announcement that the Golan "will forever remain in Israel's hands."
"The EU recognizes Israel within its pre-1967 boundaries, regardless of the (Israeli) government's claims on other areas, until a final settlement is reached," Mogherini said before a meeting in Brussels of international donors in support of the Palestinian economy.
"This is a shared position reaffirmed by the European Union and its member states," she added.
