The US and its allies use the International Criminal Court to impose their will on other countries, a military analyst has told RT

The EU’s disregard for the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) rulings against Israel shows it is a “fake justice” institution, Drago Bosnic, a military expert and contributor to the Bangladeshi Blitz weekly, has told RT.

In November 2024, the ICC issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of committing war crimes in Gaza. Israel has rejected the allegations as baseless and “absurd.” 

Despite an outstanding warrant, Netanyahu is set to visit Hungary this week, where Prime Minister Viktor Orban has promised not to enforce the ICC’s decision. Poland has also said it will not arrest Netanyahu. The EU’s foreign policy chief, Kaja Kallas, who refused to urge member states to comply with the warrant, made a high-profile trip to Israel last month.

Speaking to RT, Bosnic argued that Western countries wield the ICC as a political tool against nations they do not like. “We see double standards on virtually every step of the way of the functioning of the so-called ICC,” he said. “There is just no way that any Western country would arrest” Netanyahu, a close ally of the US, he added. 

“There is no accountability if you are an ally of NATO or the US. There is simply no reason for you to worry about those things,” Bosnic said. The ICC often serves the “purpose of legitimizing Western… interventionism,” helping the US and allies to label people they do not like as “bad guys.”

According to Bosnic, the ICC should be “dismantled entirely and moved out of the countries of NATO and the EU.”
