The newly elected Prime Minister of Hungary Peter Magyar has reversed Hungary’s decision to withdraw from the International Criminal Court (ICC), initiated by his predecessor Viktor Orbán, and said that, therefore, if Benjamin Netanyahu were to visit Hungary, he would be arrested on the ICC indictment. Magyar’s statement, reported in RT, was: “I made it clear to the Israeli prime minister that we are not stepping back [from the ICC]. It is the Tisza government’s intention to stop this and for Hungary to remain a member,” Magyar said. “So I think I didn’t mislead anyone. If a country is a member of the ICC and if a person who is wanted enters that country’s territory, they must be taken into custody…. I assume that every state and government leader is aware of these regulations.”
