Ex-Israeli Prime Minister Bennett calls for ICC to be abolished over arrest warrants
Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett called for the abolition of the International Criminal Court (ICC) after the prosecutor requested arrest warrants for the current Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the country’s Defense Minister Yoav Galant. This is reported by Fox News.
The politician accused the ICC of acting as a “political tool for Israel’s enemies” who equate Netanyahu and Galant with a terrorist group.
“No judge in his right mind would think about this. The ICC must be liquidated and defunded, we must use all available tools to do this,” he said.
Earlier, the Israeli Prime Minister said that he was not afraid to travel abroad due to the request for a warrant for his arrest. According to him, prosecutor Karim Khan himself should worry about his status, since he has turned the ICC into a pariah.
