Will Italy arrest Netanyahu? Meloni's (non) decision

What to do? If tomorrow Benjamin Netanyahu and the former minister Yoav Gallant they landed at Fiumicino, what would the government do? Would you send the police to pick up the prime minister of a foreign state and hand him over to the International Criminal Court? Mystery. We don’t know. Because if the US has already defined the arrest warrant for “war crimes” as “insane”; if Hungary sided with Bibi; if Holland, Ireland, Slovenia and Cyprus have already shown themselves with handcuffs in their hands; in the middle of the path of our indecision there are still France, Germany and obviously Italy. Three countries divided by the need not to fail to support Tel Aviv but at the same time not to disavow membership of the Court.

Well. However, he also sits on the same council of ministers Guido Crosetto. Who, after having slipped up on the attack on the Unifil base a few days ago, passing off the missiles as Israeli which in reality were Hezbollahat Porta a Porta he defined the ICC ruling as wrong, underlining however that, by adhering to it, Italy could do nothing but “arrest” both Netanyahu and Gallant. In the middle there is Antonio Tajani, who respects and supports the Court, but waits to examine the papers “to understand what the motivations are” and then make the necessary decisions “together with our allies”.
