¶1. The GODJ does not/not currently enforce any aspects
(reftels) of the Arab League Boycott. No/no U.S. companies have
reported any boycott-related issues or complaints to Post.
¶2. Israel retains an import code in the local import
codification manual used by GODJ customs officials; however, there
is little or no direct trade between Djibouti and Israel. The
Israeli shipping line ZIM uses the Port of Djibouti. As a member
of the Arab League and the Organization of the Islamic Conference,
the GODJ generally supports Palestinian causes in multilateral
organizations.
