"  Scarlett Johansson has quit her role as an Oxfam ambassador following a row involving her support for SodaStream. The actress&amp;#039;s collaboration with the Israeli company has been met with controversy due to their operation in the occupied West Bank. Her spokesperson stated that she had a &amp;quot;fundamental difference of opinion&amp;quot; with Oxfam over the row. She will continue to work with SodaStream, which has a factory in the Jewish settlement of Maale Adumim. Oxfam is against trade from settlements, which is considered illegal under international law. Johansson announced that she had &amp;quot;respectfully decided to end her ambassador role with Oxfam after eight years&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;She and Oxfam have a fundamental difference of opinion in regards to the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement. She is very proud of her accomplishments and fundraising efforts during her tenure with Oxfam,&amp;quot; it added. Oxfam said in a statement: &amp;quot;While Oxfam respects the independence of our ambassadors, Ms Johansson&amp;#039;s role promoting the company SodaStream is incompatible with her role as an Oxfam Global Ambassador.      &amp;quot;Oxfam believes that businesses, such as SodaStream, that operate in settlements further the ongoing poverty and denial of rights of the Palestinian communities that we work to support.&amp;quot; Scarlett Johansson stars in a new commercial for SodaStream, which will air during the coveted Super Bowl slot. However, Fox has decided to air a censored version of the ad, as it contains a reference to rivals Coca-Cola and Pepsi. Photo Credit: Rex Features "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
