Venezuela’s Parliament President Calls for Withdrawal from International Criminal Court
webangah News Agency reports that Venezuela’s National Assembly has strongly condemned the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) silence regarding Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government’s actions in Gaza and its attack on Iran, calling for venezuela to withdraw from the international legal body.
Jorge Rodríguez, head of Venezuela’s National Assembly, stated during a protest march in Caracas against Israel’s aggression toward Iran: “Today, my wish is for our President Nicolás Maduro and all Venezuelan revolutionaries to announce our withdrawal from the International Criminal Court.”
He added: “we must declare our exit from this deceitful organization that serves no one’s rights.”
Rodríguez said civilian deaths in Gaza and the attack on Iran have divided the world into two groups: those opposing Netanyahu as a war criminal, and others who hypocritically justify his actions.
