UK and Canada commit to uphold international law following ICC warrants for Netanyahu
The UK and Canada have pledged to uphold international law following arrest warrants from the International Criminal Court (ICC) for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and others over alleged war crimes in Gaza. Both countries emphasized their legal obligations under the ICC treaty. The UK government stated it would comply with its legal duties if Netanyahu visits. Officials confirmed that an ICC arrest warrant would require judicial review, but they did not confirm any specific actions regarding Netanyahu's potential arrest. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau echoed this commitment, stating Canada would also act on the ICC warrant. Both leaders called for a ceasefire in Gaza and progress toward a two-state solution.
