Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada will comply with International Criminal Court arrest warrants issued for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defence minister Yoav Gallant.

Trudeau was asked at a Nov. 21 press conference if he would step in to prevent Netanyahu’s arrest if he came to Canada, since the country’s law enforcement would be obligated to take the Israeli leader into custody under international law.
