Discussion on Maduro and International Law
You've claimed Maduro had an international capture order.
Yes.
You've said he was indicted by the International Criminal Court at The Hague.
Yes.
You said you had an Interpol notice out for him.
Yeah.
None of that is true. You've literally invented all of those
things.
What?
Which of those things are true?
Which, uh, what? Interpol, well, he's wanted, and-
He's not wanted by Interpol. There's no notice from Interpol out for
Maduro.
We checked.
Oh, okay. Well, good. Well, but there's a...
He's wanted within the US.
And he was not indicted by the International Criminal Court.
He's not indicted. He's under-
Netanyahu was, Putin was-
He-
... not Maduro
... he is under investigation.
So are multiple governments who are investigated by the ICC.
And they-
Doesn't mean you can grab them from their beds.
I love the image of that.
Well, could you... Many people would love the image of
grabbing Benjamin Netanyahu,
if you support that.
I'm not here to speak about Netanyahu.
No, you are, because you're making a point about
international law, and I'm saying
for you to be consistent, do you support other countries doing
that to other
leaders who actually are indicted, unlike Maduro?
Netanyahu was, has an arrest warrant out for him.
Right. Well, I think, uh, if they're dictators who are
murdering and oppressing their, and torturing their own people, and
were not
elected, and stand there in defiance of elections,
I think, yes,
fair game. Round up the dictators.
Only the dictators, not people who have arrest warrants from
the ICC like Benjamin
Netanyahu?
Uh, well, I don't know. I, I'm not, I'm not here to-
Why, why do you become so shy when we talk about Netanyahu?
No, I don't know. I, uh, I-
You're very confident. "Round up the dictators." I say,
"Here's a guy with an
arrest warrant. Why not get him?"
Well-
You said Maduro was indicted by the ICC. He was not. Netanyahu was.
He's under investigation, and yet he's also by the,
by the Human Rights Council-
So if anyone... So hold on. Anyone investigated-
... Human Rights Council of the UN
... by the ICC can just be picked up, according to you?
This is your law of the jungle.
No, that's not my law of the jungle.
I would go back to what I said-
And why did you say he was indicted when he wasn't? That's not true.
Can we at least agree on that?
Well, my, I don't know. I misspoke, I suppose. I don't know.
So you misspoke when you said there was an international capture order.
You misspoke when you said he was indicted-
Well, there is definitely an international
capture order.
From who?
Well, from the United States, and supported-
That's-
... by other countries
... that's not an international capture. Any country can indict anyone.
Well, many other countries, many other countries also supported it.
That's not how international law works.
Many allies. I, I, I-
