Orban Invites Netanyahu to Hungary, Defies ICC Warrant, Calls It 'Shameless'
Nov 22, 2024, 07:54 AM
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban announced on Friday that he will invite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to visit Hungary, defying an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) against Netanyahu. Orban labeled the ICC's warrant as 'shameless' and 'cynical', and accused the court of interfering in an ongoing conflict for political purposes. He stated that Hungary will not observe the ICC warrant and will guarantee Netanyahu's safety during his visit. Orban also defended Israel's military actions in Gaza, describing them as justified. His stance makes Hungary the first ICC member country to publicly declare that it will ignore the court's arrest warrant for Netanyahu.
