May 9, 2025"The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions (LO), the country’s largest labor federation, has voted in favor of a comprehensive boycott of #Israel, including a ban on trade and investment with #Israeli companies.
The decision was passed with an overwhelming 88 percent majority during LO’s national congress, held in the #Norwegian capital, Oslo, from May 8 to 9, the official #Palestinian news agency WAFA reported."
Bear in mind, LO will only start implementing it if the Zionist entity has not ceased it’s occupation of Gaza within September of this year. Just mentioning this so people don’t get confused about why it hasn’t started yet during the summer.
Very important bit of context I hadn’t gotten with me. Four months is a long time to wait when it comes to a genocidal occupation…
The election is also in September. I wonder how that factors into things?
