Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says he would arrest Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he entered Canada.
In an interview with Bloomberg, Carney was asked if he would fulfill the commitment of his predecessor Justin Trudeau to detain Netanyahu on war crimes charges, to which Carney replied “yes.”
The International Criminal Court last week rejected Israel’s bid to appeal against arrest warrants issued by the ICC for Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant over the war with Hamas in Gaza.
In a ruling last year, the ICC found “reasonable grounds” to believe Netanyahu and Gallant bore “criminal responsibility” for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel denies all the allegations.
