英国正在超越对以色列占领的谴责，转向具体行动，巴勒斯坦驻英国大使胡萨姆·佐姆洛特表示，他欢迎针对非法定居点的措施，同时敦促政府确保这些措施得到全面落实。
Britain is moving beyond condemnation of Israel’s occupation toward concrete action, Palestinian Ambassador to the UK Husam Zomlot said, welcoming measures against illegal settlements while urging the government to ensure they are fully implemented.
“英国政府的政策有所改善，现在我们看到的是行动，而不仅仅是言论、声明和谴责，我们看到的是对局势的明确定义，”佐姆洛特对安纳多卢通讯社说。“这仍在进行中，但这是一个非常好的开端，”他补充道。
“The UK government policy has improved, and now we see action rather than just words and statements and condemnations, and we see clear definition of the situation,” Zomlot told Anadolu. “It's a work in progress, but it's a very good start,” he added.
他的言论是在英国计划禁止从以色列非法定居点进口商品，并限制支持其在被占领的西岸建设和扩张的企业之际引发的外交争议中发表的。以色列作出回应，下令英国驻被占领东耶路撒冷总领事馆关闭。
His comments come amid a diplomatic dispute over British plans to ban imports from illegal Israeli settlements and restrict businesses supporting their construction and expansion in the occupied West Bank. Israel responded by ordering the British consulate general in occupied East Jerusalem to close.
英国于10月8日宣布，该建筑将继续作为英国驻耶路撒冷使团保持开放，尽管部分人员已被撤离。
Britain announced on Oct. 8 that the building would remain open as the UK Mission, Jerusalem, although some staff had been withdrawn.
对佐姆洛特而言，英国的政策转变具有重要意义，因为英国已承诺采取旨在对占领施加后果的措施。他表示，下一个考验是这些承诺是否能转化为有效的限制。
For Zomlot, the UK's policy shift is significant because Britain has committed to measures intended to impose consequences for the occupation. The next test, he said, is whether those commitments translate into effective restrictions.
“这非常真实，而不仅仅是空谈，”他说。“现在的问题是执行和落实。”自2023年10月以来，英国对以色列和巴勒斯坦的政策经历了重大演变。在里希·苏纳克领导的保守党政府下，英国强烈支持以色列自卫的权利，同时皇家空军的监视飞机被部署在地中海东部上空。
“It’s very real and not just words,” he said. “The issue now is enforcement, implementation.”Since October 2023, British policy toward Israel and Palestine has undergone a significant evolution. Under the Conservative government of Rishi Sunak, Britain strongly backed Israel’s right to defend itself, while Royal Air Force surveillance aircraft were deployed over the eastern Mediterranean.
随着加沙平民伤亡人数上升，人道主义准入恶化，以及对违反国际法的担忧加剧，英国的立场面临日益增长的压力。
As civilian casualties mounted in Gaza, humanitarian access deteriorated and concerns over violations of international law intensified, Britain’s position came under growing pressure.
在基尔·斯塔默领导下，政府于2024年暂停了一些武器出口许可证，于2025年对两名以色列部长实施制裁，并当年承认了巴勒斯坦国的地位。
Under Keir Starmer, the government suspended some arms export licenses in 2024, imposed sanctions on two Israeli ministers in 2025 and recognized Palestinian statehood that year.
但首相安迪·伯纳姆的政府已承诺对支持定居点的经济援助采取更广泛的行动，包括金融、建筑和其他服务。
But Prime Minister Andy Burnham's government has pledged broader action against economic support for settlements, including financial, construction and other services.
在工党最近的党代会上，外交大臣埃德·米利班德承认了对政策改变的诉求，对那些抗议巴勒斯坦人待遇的人说：“我们听到了，你们是对的。” “在安迪的领导下，我们已经重新调整了我们的做法。我们指出西岸定居者恐怖分子的种族清洗行为。我们指出加沙的战争罪证据。我们指出以色列对巴勒斯坦的非法占领。我们言行一致，”米利班德说。
At Labour’s recent party conference, Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband acknowledged demands for a change in policy, telling those who had protested against the treatment of Palestinians: “We hear you, you were right.”“Under Andy's leadership, we have reset our approach. We call out ethnic cleansing by the settler terrorists in the West Bank. We call out the evidence of war crimes in Gaza. We call out Israel's illegal occupation of Palestine. And we match words with actions,” Miliband said.
佐姆洛特表示，英国的立场在结束占领的目标以及使用制裁实现该目标方面建立了共同基础。
Zomlot said Britain’s position established common ground on both the goal of ending the occupation and the use of sanctions to achieve it.
“我们在机制上达成一致，那就是制裁。你必须制裁非法行为。这不是政治诉求。这是英国政府以及全球所有政府、所有国家、所有作为国际法和国际合法性承担方的国家的法律义务。”他将这一变化描述为“迈出的重要一步”，但表示其实施需要持续关注。
“We agree on the mechanism, which is sanctions. You have to sanction illegality. That's not a political demand. That's a legal obligation on the UK government and on all governments worldwide, all states, all nations that are contractors of international law and international legality.”He described the change as “a big step forward,” but said implementation would require sustained attention.
政府已为支撑新限制的立法制定了六到九个月的时间表。米利班德表示，这些措施针对的是定居点，而非以色列在1967年边界以内的贸易。
The government has set a six- to nine-month timetable for the legislation underpinning the new restrictions. Miliband has said the measures target settlements rather than trade with Israel within its pre-1967 boundaries.
佐姆洛特希望限制范围涵盖融资、推广和保险，以及对定居点的其他商业支持。
Zomlot wants restrictions to encompass financing, promotion and insurance, alongside other business support for settlements.
他还呼吁对以色列国家机构、组织和机构实施制裁，这些机构他所说的支持、保护或资助了定居点。
He also called for sanctions against Israeli state institutions, organizations and agencies that he said supported, protected or financed them.
“我们一直在说，虽然定居点是罪行，但以色列才是罪犯，”他说。
“We have been saying, while the settlements are the crime, Israel is the criminal,” he said.
“因此我们不仅要惩罚犯罪，还要惩罚罪犯，而这正是我们正在与英国政府合作推进的方向。”佐姆洛特表示，公众运动的推动帮助实现了这一转变，部长们也回应了对加强对巴勒斯坦人权行动的呼声。
“So we cannot just punish the crime, but not the criminal, and that's what we are working with the British government towards.”Zomlot credited public campaigning with helping drive the shift, saying ministers had responded to demands for stronger action on Palestinian rights.
“我们仍有很长的路要走，需要继续与英国人民合作，因为正是英国人民发出了声音，”他说。
“We still have some way to go, and we need to continue working with the British people because it was the British people who spoke it,” he said.
“这里的主要力量是舆论，是公众压力。公众已经表达了立场。”尤戈夫2026年4月的一项民调显示，超过十分之六的英国公众反对以色列在加沙和约旦河西岸持续的军事行动，而仅有13%表示支持。
“The main force here is the public opinion, the public pressure. The public has spoken.”An April 2026 poll by YouGov found that over six in 10 of the British public opposed Israel’s ongoing military actions in Gaza and the West Bank, while just 13% said they were in support.
他援引反种族隔离运动的例子，赞扬了那些反对种族灭绝和民族清洗、支持巴勒斯坦自由和解放的活动人士。
Invoking the anti-apartheid movement, he praised those campaigning against genocide and ethnic cleansing and supporting Palestinian freedom and liberation.
英国在东耶路撒冷的外交存在引发的对峙，使得政策转变的后果成为焦点。
The confrontation over Britain’s diplomatic presence in East Jerusalem has brought the consequences of the policy shift into focus.
以色列外交部长吉迪恩·萨尔下令领事馆须在10月8日前关闭，此前因定居点措施而施加了30天的最后期限。
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar ordered the consulate general to close by Oct. 8, following a 30-day deadline imposed in response to the settlement measures.
以色列还宣布对其他英国活动实施限制，包括参与加沙援助协调和巴勒斯坦权力机构安全部队的培训，以及针对英国公民的入境禁令。
Israel also announced restrictions on other British activities, including participation in Gaza aid coordination and training for Palestinian Authority security forces, as well as entry bans targeting British citizens.
米利班德表示，领事馆大楼将在新名称下继续开放。“领事馆大楼不会关闭，从今天起将被称为英国驻耶路撒冷使团，”他说。
Miliband said the consulate building would remain open under a new designation. “The Consulate General building will not be closing, and will be known as the UK Mission, Jerusalem from today,” he said.
英国坚持认为以色列无权关闭该使团，东耶路撒冷是被占领土。政府表示，将在可信的讨论继续进行的前提下，努力重建其外交存在，并避免采取报复性行动。佐姆洛特否认以色列有权下令关闭领事馆。
Britain maintains that Israel has no legal right to close the mission and that East Jerusalem is occupied territory. The government said it would work to rebuild its diplomatic presence and refrain from reciprocal action while credible discussions continued. Zomlot rejected Israel’s authority to order the closure.
“以色列没有权利，对耶路撒冷没有管辖权。东耶路撒冷是一座被占领的城市，”他说。
“Israel has no right, has no jurisdiction over Jerusalem. East Jerusalem is an occupied city,” he said.
他描述了该使团，该使团已维持近200年的英国外交存在，作为两国人民之间的重要联系。
He described the mission, which has maintained a British diplomatic presence for nearly 200 years, as an important connection between the two peoples.
“它作为英国和英国人民与巴勒斯坦人民之间的联络地址发挥作用，”他说。
“It serves as the address between Britain and the British people and the Palestinian people,” he said.
他称对英国外交存在的行动是“非常非法的行为”，并敦促伦敦不要接受它。
He called the move against the British diplomatic presence “a very illegal act” and urged London not to accept it.
“以色列对世界因其非法行为而作出反应时的反应，总是加倍坚持非法行为，”他说。
“Israel's response always when the world reacts to its illegality is to double down on the illegality,” he said.
