French organizers wall off Israeli defense booths at Eurosatory | Vídeo

Paris, Jun 15 (EFE).- Around a dozen booths belonging to Israeli defence companies were walled off hours before the opening of the Eurosatory arms fair in Paris on Monday, following French government restrictions on the promotion of offensive weapons.

Organizers said some Israeli exhibitors had failed to comply with participation conditions set by French authorities, although other Israeli companies were allowed to keep their stands open. Israel's Defense Ministry condemned the move as "cynical and discriminatory" and accused France of trying to exclude Israeli technology from the international exhibition.

Eurosatory is one of the world's leading defence and security trade fairs. This year's edition features 2,656 exhibitors from 61 countries and official delegations from 93 nations. (Camera: POL LLOBERAS CARDONA).
