Hungarian parliament rejects draft law to withdraw from International Criminal Court  - 1

Hungarian MPs, elected in the last parliamentary elections, have overwhelmingly rejected former Prime Minister Viktor Orban's draft law to withdraw the country from the International Criminal Court (ICC), Agence France-Presse reported, quoted by BTA.

Out of a total of 199 MPs, 133 voted against the bill, which would have required Hungary to withdraw from the Rome Statute - the ICC's founding treaty. If adopted, the law would have come into force on June 2.

37 MPs voted in favor of the proposal, while five abstained.
