U.S. Treasury Lifts Sanctions on Israeli Settlers in West Bank After Trump Revokes Biden's Executive Order 14115

Jan 24, 2025, 04:23 PM

The U.S. Department of Treasury has officially lifted all sanctions against Israeli settlers and organizations in the occupied West Bank, following an executive order signed by President Donald Trump earlier this week. The sanctions, which were initially imposed by the Biden administration under Executive Order 14115, targeted individuals and entities involved in violence and instability in the region. The revocation of these sanctions has led to the unblocking of all property and interests that were previously frozen under the order. This move reverses the Biden-era policy and has sparked discussions about the future direction of U.S. policy towards Israel and the West Bank.
