The international court is under control of people who represent the so-called rules-based world order, a military analyst has told RT
The International Criminal Court (ICC) is being used by "so-called globalists" to enforce rules upon dependent nations that they themselves have no intention of adhering to, Drago Bosnic, a military expert and contributor to Bangladeshi Blitz newspaper, has claimed in an interview with RT.
A number of nations have criticized the organization recently, including Hungary, whose National Assembly voted this week to withdraw from the institution.
Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto criticized the international court as "a politicized institution that has lost its impartiality and credibility" when announcing the lawmakers' decision.
Bosnic attributed Hungary's departure to Budapest's possible conclusion that it cannot depend on the organization "in case anything happens."
"The ICC is essentially under the control of the political West, and not even the entire West, but we're talking about these so-called globalists or the people who represent the so-called rules-based world order," he argued.
Advocates of these rules view them "as something that they're not required to follow, but something that they want to impose on other countries that they want to keep controlling as neo-colonies."

Hungary previously defied the ICC by refusing to enforce an arrest warrant issued last November against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he visited Budapest in early April.
The ICC lacks a police force and depends on signatories of the Rome Statute - the treaty that grants it authority - to detain and transfer suspects.
