Netanyahu to miss Auschwitz anniversary due to risk of arrest on ICC warrant
Benjamin Netanyahu will not take part in events dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz in Poland, due to fears of arrest by the International Criminal Court (ICC).
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that he will not visit Poland in January 2025 to attend events marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp. The reason was the likelihood of arrest on the basis of a warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC).
This is not the first time Netanyahu has avoided traveling to European countries. He had previously refused visits for fear of secretly issued arrest warrants. However, the situation has now changed: information about the warrant has become public.
Netanyahu's decision sparked heated discussion in political and public circles. It highlights the increasing tension between the Israeli Government and the international community in the context of the accusations leveled against it.
