Slovenia declared two far-right Israeli cabinet ministers, Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, persona non grata on Thursday, the first European Union country to do so, Foreign Minister Tanja Fajon said.
The government accused Israel’s national security minister Ben-Gvir and finance minister Smotrich – both West Bank settlers – of making “genocidal statements” and inciting violence against Palestinians.
