<p>Our position is well-known and has not changed. In line with international law,
and relevant UN Security Council resolutions, notably Resolutions 242 and 497, we
do not recognize Israel's sovereignty over the territories occupied by Israel since
June 1967. Annexation of territory by force is prohibited under international law.
The UK has also reiterated our position at the UN Security Council, including with
our Belgian, French, German and Polish colleagues on 26 March, and in the UN Security
Council Chamber on 27 March. On 2 April, the Foreign Secretary also made clear the
UK's position in the House of Commons confirming we view the annexation of territory
by force as prohibited under international law.</p>
