European Union member states are "strongly divided" on the issue of providing arms to Israel, which is a matter of national competence, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said on Monday.
"This is a national competence [providing weapons to Israel], and member states are strongly divided, and I am sure we will discuss it [today]," Borrell told reporters ahead of the EU Foreign Affairs Council in Luxembourg.
In early October, Borrell said that a number of EU member states were ready to provide Israel with assistance in both defensive and offensive operations, in addition to arms supplies.
