BUDAPEST, May 27 (Reuters) — Hungarian lawmakers voted Wednesday to maintain their nation’s participation in the International Criminal Court, overturning a 2025 decision by the previous administration under Viktor Orban to exit the organization.
The former government under Orban had chosen to leave the ICC, claiming the judicial body had become “political.” Current Prime Minister Peter Magyar, who defeated Orban in last month’s electoral contest, had promised to maintain Hungary’s ICC membership.
