EEAS published Kallas remarks reporting no unanimity on proposed Ben-Gvir sanctions on 15 June 2026

Yes, it has been proposed by many Member States to sanction the Minister Ben Gvir; we will discuss this. At the moment, my consultations with the Member States is that we do not have the necessary unanimity that we need for this decision.

This record verifies the written EEAS press remarks published on 15 June 2026, including the complete answer about proposed sanctions and Kallas’s account of consultations at that time. The page says “Check against delivery!”; the exact spoken wording and a video timestamp have not been independently verified. The linked Commission video I-291199 is dated 15 June 2026 and labels its transcript automatically generated; that transcript renders the minister’s name differently and is not used as evidence of exact wording. The contemporaneous Council results distinguish previously adopted 28 May listings from discussion of further policy options (https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/fac/2026/06/15/, Israel and Palestine section). This record makes no finding of misconduct, liability, grounds for sanctions, adoption of a Ben-Gvir sanction, or current sanctions status. It establishes only what the official written record attributed to Kallas on that date.
