France confirms Netanyahu's immunity from International Criminal Court arrest warrants

ndtv.com — November 27, 2024 at 06:01 PM UTC

France's foreign ministry announced that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has immunity from arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC). This immunity applies because Israel is not a member of the ICC. French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot stated that some leaders may enjoy immunity under international law. He did not confirm whether France would arrest Netanyahu if he visited, emphasizing that judicial authorities would make that decision. The ICC recently issued warrants for Netanyahu and others, prompting mixed reactions. Amnesty International criticized France's stance, arguing it contradicts the country's obligations as an ICC member.
