For the moral and political fallout of the Mitsotakis government for the position it took regarding the arrest warrant for the Israeli prime minister from the International Criminal Court, Giorgos Kyrtsos speaks with his post in X.
Kirtsou’s post
“Ethical and political collapse of the government with the position it took that the International Criminal Court does not…solve the problem with the warrant it issued for Netanyahu, considering him responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
The government is in favor of international law,
but not when “friend Bibi” Netanyahu is accountable.
Borel is not going to say and the Europeans of the G-7 emphasize that the international commitments of the EU and European governments will be respected.
Mitsotakis went to Orban..”

## World Today News: Interview on the Netanyahu Arrest Warrant and the Greek Government’s Response
**Interviewer:** Welcome to World Today News. Today we’re discussing the recent arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Greek government’s response to this event.

**Guest 1 & Guest 2:** Thank you for having us.
**Section 1: The Arrest Warrant and its Implications**
**Interviewer:** Let’s start with the arrest warrant itself.

What are your initial thoughts on this unprecedented development?
**Guest 1:**
(Guest 1 can discuss the political context of the warrant, potential ramifications for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and international reaction to the ICC’s decision.)
**Guest 2:**

**Interviewer:** Beyond the legality, what are the potential consequences of this arrest warrant for the region and for the Israeli-Palestinian peace process?
**(Both guests can offer their perspectives on the broader implications.)**
**Section 2: The Greek Government’s Response**
**Interviewer:** Turning to Greece, Giorgos Kyrtsos, a Greek commentator, has been highly critical of the Greek government’s response to the arrest warrant. He argues that the government’s stance amounts to a “moral and political collapse,” particularly because it aligns with Netanyahu despite the allegations against him.
Can you shed light on the Greek government’s position and the reasoning behind it?
**Guest 1:**
(Guest 1 can explain the Greek government’s stated position, its reasoning, and potential factors influencing its stance.)
**Interviewer:** Kyrtsos also points out that Greece is theoretically obligated to uphold the ICC’s warrant based on its international commitments. How does this theoretical obligation intersect with Greece’s stated position and its relationship with Israel?
**Guest 2:**
(Guest 2 can discuss the legal complexities surrounding Greece’s obligations towards the ICC and its potential predicament.)
**Section 3: Differing Perspectives and Moving Forward**
**Interviewer:** This situation clearly fuels heated debate. We’ve heard criticisms from voices like Kyrtsos. Conversely, what arguments might be put forward in defense of the Greek government’s position?
**(Both guests offer counter-arguments to those raised by Kyrtsos, discussing potential justifications for the Greek government’s strategy.)**
**Interviewer:** Looking ahead, how do you see this situation playing out? What are the implications for Greece-Israel relations, the ICC’s authority, and the search for a lasting peace in the Middle East?
**(Both guests provide their concluding thoughts and foreseeable outcomes.)**
**Interviewer:**
