PARIS — France has decided to ban Israeli companies from the Euronaval trade show that kicks off in early November, one person with first-hand knowledge of the issue told POLITICO.

Israeli delegations will be able to attend the event but contractors cannot showcase their military equipment at booths, the person added after being granted anonymity to discuss a matter that isn't public yet.

The French Euronaval ban is the latest row in a series of diplomatic fallouts between President Emmanuel Macron and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as Israel's military ramps up its attacks in Gaza and Lebanon.

I'm not sure what you're mad about. Fuck Macron but this is real progress.

Not being invited to a trade show isn't quite the same as blockading all arms sales & suspending all diplomatic relations.

It doesn't even qualify for "the bare fucking minimum"
