Скачать или смотреть Germany criticises Netanyahu's visit to Hungary amid ICC withdrawal

Germany's foreign minister called Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's visit to Hungary on Thursday "a bad day for international criminal law".

Since the International Criminal Court (ICC) first issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu, his former defence minister Yoav Gallant and the late Hamas commander Mohammed Deif last year, any ICC member state is obliged to arrest them should they visit their country.

Yet Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban announced the country's withdrawal from the ICC during Netanyahu's visit, calling it a "political court" in a decision welcomed by the Israeli premier.
