western allies, including the us and germany, have criticized the courts move saying it equates as well as actions in gaza. thomas's october 7th terrorist attack. honestly, it is also wanted by the court and let's begin. now. brussels correspond rosie budget, who's been following this for us? rosie, how are you leaders reacting to israel is appealed to ignore any warrants requested by the i. c. c. well, light with so much of the use response to this conflict. really since the early days. your opinion is devalued, is no different here. we've had different responses from across the use 27 member states. so for example, here in belgium, where i am, we've had a statement from the country saying that this is a, this request for an arrest warrant from the i. c. c is an important step in investigations into this situation in palestine that's according to thousands for administered the way she described it in her similar statements from slovenia. then
5:08 pm
when it came to france fronts, it has its, for an offices, were released the state and saying, really for months, the french government has been warning about the importance of compliance with international law in gaza, particularly highlighting the important surface about a terri access, germany, all the other hand has said it in series supports the icpc think this is a very important achievement of the international community, but it has criticized what it sees as the i did. the court came forward with an application for on the one hand, it's really leaders, but also have most leaders and jeremy, you said that seems to create an implication or false implication of equivalence. and then really at the far end of the spectrum, we have the hon. gary and prime minister, victor, oregon, who has called the application from the icpc for this arrest warrant, shameful. so that is something you can see as once again you countries divided on how to move forward on this conflict and a divide that again, i should say, in this case from the united states. we've heard of different here from joe by and
5:09 pm
use cold. this request for awards, outrages. well moving forward, what do you expect to happen next? as well as well. they might have different opinions here in senior e. u. countries are owned by owned by the st. lois, they are signatories to the room, stop shooting, which is what establishes the international criminal court. and those laws are the if they say the rest, the application for a rest wouldn't work to be granted. benjamin netanyahu was really preregistered would officially become a fugitive of the i. c. c, and not would meet you. countries wouldn't very be obliged to arrest him. should he come to their territory. we are not anywhere near that position yet. however, that is this potential road forward like asked your team commissions for an affair spokesperson a boat base. and he really seemed to me highlighted just the importance of compliance with official international law obligations. take a listen to what he said to me. you new specs, the independence of the icing business independent international institution, the deals with the investigation of the, the serious crimes that tries to deliver on the issue of impunity or prevents that
5:10 pm
there is so if you need to, if anything comes to violations which fall under the remy than the mandate of the i, c c. and again, all the countries that subscribe their own scott, you of the icbc have double negation to follow that. and a lot of what we just heard, how will this affect the ease credibility of a warrant is granted? so it should be know, since that we are still at the stage of the application and there is no timeline or the deadline. so i see judges will know decide whether or not to move forward with baseboard if it is granted in this e. u. countries decide to shirk their official obligations under international low . you can bet there will be a load or clamoring accusations of the e u. a executive double standards, basically having different applications of international law. we know, for example, that you was quite a vocal and welcoming the arrest board, which was issued for russian president vladimir putin. however,
5:11 pm
one on no split it to me this way. he said, look, the west has, there's no, it's got a monopoly from the west on double standards here. and we have certainly seen countries in other parts. the world also really tying themselves and political notes or what to do, but an icpc arrest more. and that was the case, for example, when there was discussion over whether south africa should welcome russian president vladimir putin to a summit of the bricks alliance instead of the interest foreign minister went on years before that. also in south africa, there was a debate over whether to whether to arrest from our overseer, the, the suspect is more criminal from redone. so this is not something which is unique to each countries, but certainly something which could be a great source of political controversy. moving forward, you correspond are both a bunch of live from brussels. iran has held the 1st funeral services for president abraham raw, you say killed in a helicopter crash on sunday. along with other top officials. he became president of 2021 and was seen as a deeply conservative and hotline liter state media showed an outpouring of emotion
