This was announced on Sunday Netanyahu’s office. TASR reports according to AFP.
Netanyahu is in Hungary According to the program, he will meet Orbán and other high -ranking representatives. He should return to Israel on April 6. Orbán said in November last year that he would invite Netanyahu to visit Hungary and guarantee that the arrest warrant that ICC issued to him for suspicion of war crimes in the Gaza Strip would “not be observed”.
Several European countries then responded that if Netanyahu entered their land, it would be immediately detained. All Member States of the European Union, including Hungary, are members of ICC, which means that they are obliged to perform its arrest warrants.
Orbán often comes into a dispute with the EU on democratic standards and human rights. Hungary, as a contracting party of the Roman ICC status, is obliged to arrest Netanyahua if it enters its territory.
ICC released on November 21, 2024, in addition to Netanyahu, also to Israeli defense ex -Minister Joav Galanta and also on the time killed by the armed wing of Hamas Muhammad Dajf Dajffor suspicion of crimes against humanity and war crimes during the Gaza Strip conflict.
