The largest grocery chain in Norway has announced that it is imposing a boycott on goods produced in Israel, Israel Radio reported Thursday.

It said the Co-op chain also urged other firms in Scandinavian nations to follow suit.

The radio added that there would be discussions in Sweden later in the day over a possible widening of the reported boycott. It quoted Sweden's foreign minister as saying she opposed a boycott, saying it would sap the strength of opponents of Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.
