Trump on Netanyahu: He won't be arrested when he visits New York

US President Donald Trump said on Monday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not be arrested when he visits New York in September.

The statement comes as a few days ago, the mayor of this city, Zohran Mamdani, warned that such an arrest could occur.

Mamdani said the New York City law department is discussing the possibility of arresting Netanyahu when he is in the city to attend the United Nations General Assembly.

"I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu belongs in The Hague. He is an indicted war criminal by the International Criminal Court. And what you will find is that this is a view held by many people simply because of what his actions have brought about over the last few years,"  Mamdani told the prestigious American newspaper The New York Times. /CNA
