The arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant continues to be at the top of the agenda, with most European countries saying they will comply with the order.

Following the ICC’s announcement of the arrest warrant against Netanyahu and Gallant “for war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in Gaza”, many European countries announced that they would unconditionally comply with the court’s order, while some European countries criticized the decision and showed an ambiguous approach.

Countries such as Ireland, Belgium, France, Slovenia, Denmark, the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, Portugal, Spain, Norway, and Liechtenstein have said that the ICC’s decision must be respected and that they will comply with the arrest warrant.
