Polish President Andrzej Duda has called on the government to ensure the safety of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from arrest if he attends the 80th anniversary commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz. This comes after speculation that Netanyahu would skip the event due to fears of arrest following an ICC warrant against him for war crimes in Gaza.

Poland's stance is critical given its historical ties to Jewish communities and the Holocaust.
