EE. UU. dejará de cooperar en ciencia y tecnología con entidades israelíes en Judea y Samaria, Altos del Golán y Jerusalén Este

EE. UU. le dijo a Israel que cesará la cooperación científica y tecnológica con entidades en Judea y Samaria (Cisjordania), los Altos del Golán y Jerusalén Este, volviendo a una política de larga data que se había revertido bajo Donald Trump, informó The Times of Israel.

La cadena Kan dijo que la medida es un regreso a la directiva de que no habría cooperación científica y tecnológica en las áreas definidas por un funcionario anónimo del Departamento de Estado de EE. UU. como más allá de la Línea Verde de 1967 y “que siguen sujetas a negociaciones sobre su estado permanente”.

La política se revirtió brevemente bajo Trump, cuando el primer ministro Benjamín Netanyahu y el entonces embajador de los EE. UU., David Friedman, firmaron un acuerdo que eliminaba todas las restricciones geográficas anteriores de la cooperación científica de los dos países.
