MUST WATCH: Zohran Mamdani CALLS OUT Benjamin Netanyahu for his war crimes
What was said
"As I've said, I agree with the ICC that Benjamin Netanyahu should be arrested and tried for his crimes, as I do for anyone else charged by the ICC. My administration has reviewed every avenue available under applicable law to determine whether New York City could execute the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant if Benjamin Netanyahu came here. It is clear that we do not have the independent legal authority to enforce this warrant."
Zohran Mamdani argues New York City lacks independent legal authority to enforce an International Criminal Court arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He says his administration reviewed options under applicable law and concluded enforcement would fall to the federal government, which he urges to act if Netanyahu enters the US.
