Netanyahu refused to meet with the British Foreign Minister because of the decision on the International Criminal Court
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to meet with British Foreign Minister David Lammy, expressing dissatisfaction with Britain's decision to withdraw its objections to the International Criminal Court.
According to Israeli Channel 13 reports, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to meet with British Foreign Minister David Lammy during his visit to Israel. The refusal was prompted by Netanyahu's displeasure over Britain's recent decision to withdraw its objections to the International Criminal Court (ICC).
The British government has repeatedly asked for a meeting, but Netanyahu remained adamant in his decision. This diplomatic incident highlights the tensions between Israel and the UK, especially in light of recent decisions related to the international jurisdiction of the ICC. This move by London was apparently perceived in Jerusalem as a threat to Israel's interests, which led to the rejection of the summit meeting.
This case may have long-term consequences for bilateral relations, especially against the background of the ongoing conflict in the region and the role of international law in resolving these issues.
