Washington, United States: The United States on Wednesday urged the European Union to keep up its sanctions on Hamas, saying there was "no change" in US policy.

"The EU should maintain terrorism sanctions on Hamas," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said, adding that the United States was studying a ruling by an EU court ordering that the Palestinian militant group be removed from an EU blacklist.
