Hungary begins the process of leaving the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (MUS). This was announced by the head of the office of the prime minister of the country Gergei Guyayash. “On Thursday, the government will begin work on the withdrawal (from the Mus) in accordance with constitutional and international legal norms,” he wrote on his Facebka page. The statement of the Hungarian authorities about leaving the Musa was made against the backdrop of a visit to the country of the Prime Minister of Israel Beniamin Netanyahu, to whom the International Order was issued. Reuters recalls that the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban invited Netanyahu to the country the day after the Musa decision to give the arrest of the prime minister of Israel. Then Orban promised that Netanyahu would not be arrested, and called the Mus’s decision “insolent, cynical and completely unacceptable”. Hungary in 1999 signed the Roman Statute, an international agreement on the creation of the Mus, and ratified it two years later. According to Reuters, the process of leaving Hungary from the Mus will take a year. In March 2023, the Hungarian authorities said they would not be arrested by Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Order of the International Criminal Court if he came to the country. Guyash then noted that Hungary has no legal basis for this, although the country signed and ratified the Roman Statute, on the basis of which the Mus works. Guyash referred to the fact that the statute was not built into the Hungarian legal system. (Tagstotranslate) News
