Erekat: 'Palestinians will step up diplomatic efforts at the ICC'
The Palestinians will step up diplomatic efforts at the International Criminal Court (ICC) to pursue Israeli leaders, said top Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat on Tuesday shortly after exit polls were published in the 2015 Israeli elections.
"It is clear that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will form the next government, and for that, we say clearly that we will go to the Hague Tribunal, we will accelerate, continue and intensify" diplomatic efforts, he told AFP. Netanyahu and his rival Herzog of the center-left were neck-in-neck according to the exit polls.
