LONDON, May 20 (Xinhua) — Britain has suspended talks with Israel on a free trade agreement over Israel’s blockade of the Gaza Strip, UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy said on Tuesday, adding that Israel’s ambassador to Britain has been summoned to the ministry.

Speaking in the House of Commons, the lower house of the British parliament, David Lammy stressed that Israel’s blockade of Gaza is “morally wrong, unjustifiable and must end.”

The diplomat noted that, in his opinion, all parliamentarians “must strongly condemn the Israeli government for depriving hungry children of food.” –0–
