UK suspends trade talks with Israel

dc

About this episode

The British Foreign Secretary, David Lammy, has announced the suspension of negotiations with Israel on a new trade agreement - due to what he called its "intolerable" and "abominable" recent actions in Gaza. The World Health Organisation says two million people in Gaza are starving. As Israel allows some aid in after an eleven week blockade, the British government says it's nowhere near enough. Also on the programme: Tanzania detains two prominent human rights activists who had travelled to Dar es Salaam to observe an opposition leader’s treason case. And we'll have an appreciation of a ballet maestro with an iron fist.(Photo: Britain's Foreign Minister David Lammy delivers a statement on the Israel and Hamas ceasefire deal, at the House of Commons, in London, Britain, January 16, 2025.
