Hungary’s Prime Minister, Viktor Orban invited Netanyahu in November shortly after the ICC issued an arrest warrant against him.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to make a state visit to Hungary in the coming weeks in defiance of the International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant against him.
Hungary’s Prime Minister, Viktor Orban invited Netanyahu in November shortly after the ICC issued an arrest warrant against him and his former defense minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes in Gaza.
Although Hungary as a member of the European Union is theoretically bound by the ICC directives, Orban told Netanyahu that the warrant for his arrest “would not be observed” if he came to Hungary.
