Palestinian professor: The Hague Tribunal is under pressure from the West and America

According to the international group Tasnim news agency, after South Africa filed a complaint against The Zionist regime submitted to the International Court of Justice for the genocide of this regime against Palestinian civilians, several other countries have also joined this complaint against the Zionists and demand to investigate this case and to interrogate and try the authorities of the occupying regime as war criminals.

Also, in the past month, the discussion of the possibility of issuing an arrest warrant for Zionist officials, including the Prime Minister of the occupying regime, Benjamin Netanyahu, for war crimes against the people of Gaza, has been repeated many times, and the Zionist regime, supported by the United States, is trying to put pressure on the Hague Tribunal. And the withdrawal of this court from issuing such a verdict.

In this context, Netanyahu asked US President Joe Biden to do something to prevent the issuance of an arrest warrant for him and other senior Israeli officials by the Hague Court. . After that, members of Congress from both the Republican and Democratic parties have threatened the Hague International Court about issuing an arrest warrant against Israeli officials and announced that such an action will be met with the reaction of the United States. Accordingly, the Hague Court has so far failed to issue a definitive ruling to deal with the crimes of the occupiers in Gaza and to arrest the Zionist criminal officials. We have given that the description of this interview is in the form of questions and answers as follows: Question: Your opinion about the action What is the future of the Hague Tribunal against the crimes of Netanyahu and the Zionists in Gaza? Al-Hanafi: First of all, we are committed to a We are a fair trial and we emphasize that we should bring the criminals to their maximum charges (make the charge clear and prosecute these criminals) and if there are challenges in front of us, we should not back down and we should be strong.

Also. It is clear that the prosecutor of the Hague Court is exposed to many temptations, which has caused him not to issue arrest warrants for the Zionist officials. However, we still put pressure on him and provide him with documents as soon as possible that he will have to fulfill his responsibility and if he does not adhere to his obligations, he should resign and be replaced by someone else. We adhere to justice until the last breath, even if there are many challenges in front of us.

– Question: Do you think that the International Court of Justice in this situation Can he issue a sentence against Netanyahu? Al-Hanafi: It was expected that before the end of last April An arrest warrant was issued against Netanyahu and the Zionist authorities, and the world was happy about this, but this did not happen because of the pressures against the Hague Court and its prosecutor, and we know that. Yes, it is possible to issue an arrest warrant for Netanyahu because the crimes of the occupying regime are many and cannot be hidden. that the International Court of Justice is a just court or that it loses its value and credibility in front of nations.

– Question: Karim Khan from Which countries or parties are under pressure not to issue an arrest warrant against Netanyahu? Al-Hanafi: The leadership of this Germany, France, England and the United States are putting pressure on Karim Khan and the Hague Court so that Karim Khan does not issue the order (to arrest Netanyahu and other Zionist officials). Recently, the American media published an article that showed that representatives in the United States Congress received financial bribes to issue a law that would impose restrictions on the Hague Tribunal if the prosecutor of the Hague Tribunal issues an arrest warrant for Israeli officials, which amounts to blackmail. And it is a great disgrace to international law.

Israel is leading this campaign and has 89 diplomatic missions in the world, and all of these missions have put pressure on the Hague Tribunal and its prosecutor.

– Question: You said that the world is based on coalitions and you suggest that a coalition be formed between Iran and Turkey or Arab countries against the Western coalition led by America and Israel. In your opinion, how can this Iranian-Arab and Turkish coalition stand against the Western coalition regarding the crimes committed by this coalition in Gaza?

Al-Hanafi: Let me point out a very important point that Iran always supports the cause of Palestine and this is not a hidden issue. Iran is also highly respected by the Palestinian people and has good relations with many Islamic countries. Therefore, due to its geographical and demographic weight and value, Iran can form a coalition that includes friendly countries and countries that are ready to participate in such a coalition. and unions, rather through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and according to the guidelines of Imam Khamenei, the supreme leader of the revolution, has started the work of forming such a coalition; Because this coalition is an important tool against the pressures and coalitions and pressures that Western countries create.
