Hungary will withdraw from the International Criminal Court (ICC), its government said Wednesday, as the country’s Prime Minister Viktor Orban welcomed Israeli Prime Minister and ICC fugitive Benjamin Netanyahu to Budapest.

Hungarian PM Viktor Orban invited Netanyahu to Budapest a day after the ICC issued an arrest warrant over allegations of war crimes in Gaza.

Hungary dodges its obligation to enforce an International Criminal Court warrant for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on his arrival for a state visit by quitting the court.
