Colombia pulls out of Hague Group, condemning its stance on Israel
Colombia announced it will leave the Hague Group and cease co-chairing, accusing the forum of targeting Israel.
The Colombian government said it is withdrawing its membership and co-chair role in the Hague Group. A spokesperson explained the move as a rejection of what he described as an effort to isolate and attack Israel. The Hague Group claims to defend international law and support ICC proceedings concerning Israel’s actions. Colombia’s decision reflects a sharp disagreement with the group’s approach.
Why it matters
Colombia’s exit highlights growing divisions over how international bodies address Israel and the use of legal mechanisms in geopolitics.
