Why Hungary Pulled Out Of "Political" ICC Amid Israel PM Netanyahu's Visit | English News | N18G
Last Updated: World
Hungary has announced its withdrawal from the International Criminal Court (ICC). This decision comes shortly after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is currently under an ICC arrest warrant, arrived in Hungary for a state visit. Netanyahu has been accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity during the conflict between Israel and Hamas, with ICC judges stating there are "reasonable grounds" to believe he bears "criminal responsibility".Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has been a vocal supporter of Netanyahu, inviting him to Hungary shortly after the arrest warrant was issued in November. Orban has stated that the ICC's ruling would have "no effect" in his country. Netanyahu has condemned the ICC's decision, labeling it "antisemitic" and asserting that it undermines Israel's right to self-defence. án News18 Mobile App - https://onelink.to/desc-youtube
