no it dosent , if that was the caase putin would walk free ( russia isnt apart of the ICC)
Our successive presidents and governments have been major Israel shills after Chirac, so I’m absolutely not surprised.
Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité (terms and conditions apply)
[Art. 98 of the Rome Statute](https://www.fedlex.admin.ch/eli/cc/2002/586/fr#art_98) is quite clear on this matter: Netanyahu cannot be arrested without the consent of Israel as he has diplomatic immunity as a (hypothetically) visiting head of government.
Things are much less clear for Gallant and for Netanyahu when he one day leaves office.
So the same applies to Putin by that logic?
So the ICC is defaced as what many always suspected: a political court of the west against the “uncivilized” countries. That’s for that macaroni boi
This meandering double standard is ruining the West’s credibility and our leaders refuse to realise it. Devastating to trust in institutions and politicians.
Is that the time I should pretend to be surprised?
An alt right head of government ordering war crimes not being arrested in a government fuller and fuller of alt right sympathizers.
It must be interesting to be supported by all the neo fascists while claiming to be fighting Nazis.
Oh wait, who’s also doing it, somewhere in the East?
International Law my ass, it doesn’t apply for white colonizers
International accountability for war crimes are only meant for Africans. He may as well just come out and say that.
Keep in mind, this is not the first time an ICC signatore has refused to do this. Looking at you South Africa:

So what is valid for Rissia and Putin seems to not be valid for Netanyahu and Israel. What a disgrace.
Wow the west is not hiding their hypocracy anymore. What a joke. It is not that strange that other countries are not taking us(west) seriosly anymore. If the person was from Russia, any African country or just any other country not connected with west, the statement would be different
Basic democratic value
Next time before you lecture other “poor” countries about your human rights and international law, take these rights and laws and put it in your A**
And so the washing of hands begins
The country that has a museum holding thousands of skulls of people they ethnically cleansed (ironically, named Museum of Mankind) doesn’t want to arrest their brothers in genocide.
Paint me surprised

This whole conversation is insane. You don’t arrest a leader of a friendly nation, no matter what. It would set such a bad precedence, a massive diplomatic conflict and detiorating of relationships with not only said nation, but also with its allies (in this case US, which is pretty important to have good relationship with).
Fraternité de Génocide
Then they wonder why people don’t accept the liberal status quo.
Here to read how r/europe tries to defend France hypocrisy this time.
All of those people who think international law exists are in shambles lol
Immune because not african ftfy
About four years ago an Iranian Diplomat was arrested, tried and sentenced to 20 years in prison by the Belgians for plotting an explosion in Paris. So they were perfectly fine with that (they cooperated throughout the trial) So it’s not that they’re worried about setting a precedent, they’re simply worried ‘because it’s Israel’
Israel reportedly demanded this statement from France as part of making France part of the committee overseeing ceasefire violations in Lebanon.
I wonder if the role of membership of a likely pointless committee is worth doing this damage to the ICC when so many other Western countries have said otherwise on this matter.
The ICC has ruled that state immunity does not apply in cases involving heads of state for crimes under its jurisdiction (e.g., *Omar al-Bashir of Sudan, the decision notes that Sudan is NOT a member of the ICC/Rome Statute -* “The Chamber notes that … the current position of Omar Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir as Head of a state which is not a party to the Statute, has no effect on the Court’s jurisdiction over the present case.” *- and the same is true for Israel*).
Not relevant for this case, but relevant anyway, when the UN Security Council refers cases to the ICC (e.g., Libya, Sudan), it can impose obligations on all states to cooperate, overriding Article 98 concerns.
So it’s possible to arrest Netanyahu without asking for himself to say “yes, I accept being arrested”. But Article 98 is indeed ridiculous and should’ve been eliminated for a long time now.
French Government defending Netanyahu after killing 1.2 Million Arabs . Typical.
What a surprise! I totally could not see this one coming! It’s totally unexpected!
How about you don’t grant immunity to people with ICC arrest warrants in the first place? Simply refuse any diplomatic visits from him.
I guess Putin can just waltz through Paris and if anyone tries to stop him theyre the bad guy
Also odd that G7 countries just yesterday claimed they would follow ICC arrest order. Maybe international law & order dont apply in france?
Not even Germany wanted to make a public statement like that. What the hell is wrong with the French government?
no other statement was expected from spineless entities
then shouldnt apply to Putin either hahah what a joke
why even arrest him
he needs to put on Blackface to get arrested
So you can not arrest Putin either? Since Russia does not recognize ICC and also he as president of Russia has diplomatic immunity?
Double standards 🤣🤣🤣 and western justice.
There was a proverb in English ” he who makes the rules can break them”
and ” gentleman always demand of others to follow the rules, when they are not in his favour he simply changes them”
Or ” do as I say but not as I do ” 🤣 .
