Slovenia has become the first European Union country to impose a full arms embargo on Israel, citing Israel’s ongoing military offensive in Gaza. Prime Minister Robert Golob announced the decision, emphasizing Slovenia's independent stance due to EU inaction. The government also declared two far-right Israeli ministers unwelcome for inciting violence. Since October 2023, Slovenia has approved no weapons exports to Israel. In June, it recognized Palestine as a state, following Ireland, Norway, and Spain. France, the UK, and Canada may follow suit.
