Hungary invites Netanyahu to visit, defying ICC arrest warrant

Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to visit, stating he will not enforce an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant against him. This marks a significant divergence from other nations' responses to the warrants. The ICC issued warrants for Netanyahu and others for alleged war crimes, prompting mixed reactions globally. While some countries, like Spain and Ireland, confirmed they would comply with the warrants, Hungary has declared it will not follow the ICC's decision. Netanyahu has criticized the warrants as antisemitic, while the U.S. expressed deep concern over the ICC's process. Other nations, including Turkey and South Africa, have supported the ICC's actions, highlighting a divide in international responses.
