Secretary of State Antony Blinken has denounced the chief prosecutor of the world’s top war crimes court for seeking the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
In wide-ranging testimony before the Senate Tuesday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken denounced the chief prosecutor of the world’s top war crimes court for seeking the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and said that despite offering condolences for the death of Iran's president, it didn't change that leader's history of repression.
Blinken, however, said the administration would work with lawmakers to come up with an appropriate response, should one be needed. Blinken lamented that some administration critics appeared to be overlooking Hamas’ role in starting the war in Gaza with its deadly attacks on Israel on Oct. 7.
