英国外交大臣埃德·米利班德周一警告公司和个人不要参与与被占领的约旦河西岸非法以色列定居点相关的建设项目投标，并指出可能面临制裁。
British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband on Monday warned companies and individuals against bidding for construction projects linked to illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, citing potential sanctions.
“我们敦促企业和个人不要继续参与E1建设项目的投标，”米利班德在一份声明中表示。
"We urge businesses and individuals not to proceed with bids for E1 construction tenders," Miliband said in a statement.
他警告称，参与该项目可能带来法律和声誉后果，包括卷入违反国际法的严重行为的风险。
He warned that participation in the project could carry legal and reputational consequences, including the risk of involvement in serious breaches of international law.
“我想对那些考虑参与投标过程的人说得非常清楚：我们已经制定了新的权力，使我们能够制裁参与非法定居点（如E1）建设的个人和公司，”米利班德说。
"I want to be very clear with those considering engaging in the tendering process: we have created new powers allowing us to sanction individuals and companies involved in the construction of illegal settlements such as E1," Miliband said.
“英国政府不会接受巴勒斯坦人持续流离失所和仍在持续的非法占领，”他补充道。
"This UK Government will not accept the continued displacement of Palestinians and the unlawful occupation that persists," he added.
米利班德还表示，政府承诺推出立法，禁止从非法定居点进口商品，并对为其提供资金或便利的服务采取行动。“英国人民不希望支持非法定居点的建设，”他说。
Miliband also said the government was committed to introducing legislation to ban goods imported from illegal settlements and take action against services that finance or facilitate them. "The British people do not want to be supporting the construction of illegal settlements," he said.
英国政府还谴责占领者在约旦河西岸加剧的暴力行为，包括最近对法国、比利时和波兰官员、一位天主教会代表以及一名美国记者的袭击。“我们不会成为两国方案被毁灭的旁观者，”米利班德说。
The British government also condemned escalating violence by occupiers in the occupied West Bank, including recent attacks on officials from France, Belgium and Poland, a representative of the Catholic Church and a US journalist. "We will not be bystanders in the destruction of the two-state solution," Miliband said.
