Gilles Emmanuel Jacquet, Vice President of the Geneva International Peace Research Institute (GIPRI), emphasised that the shortcoming of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to execute arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant would severely injury the credibility of the ICC and the broader worldwide justice system.
In a written assertion to Anadolu, Jacquet responded to the ICC’s issuance of arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant.
Jacquet famous that the ICC’s resolution aligns with the “original indictments” and that the costs towards the 2 Israeli officers are backed by substantial proof.
Highlighting Western nations’ earlier help for the ICC’s arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin, Jacquet remarked: “It remains to be seen whether these countries are consistent with their vision of the rule of law and whether they will arrest Netanyahu or Gallant if they have the opportunity to do so. This will be a critical test for international criminal law, and we can doubt that Western countries that are parties to the Rome Statute, such as France, will implement this decision. If the ICC’s decision is not implemented, it will be a serious violation and will undermine the credibility of the ICC and international justice.”
Jacquet added that whereas the ICC’s resolution might not halt Israel’s actions in Gaza or cease what he known as genocide, it should seemingly tarnish Israel’s worldwide standing and will intensify inner opposition to Netanyahu’s management inside Israel.
Israel launched a full-scale genocidal battle on Gaza following an October assault by Hamas, ensuing within the deaths of practically 44,300 individuals—most of them girls and youngsters—and injuring over 104,700 others.
The second yr of genocide in Gaza, has drawn widespread condemnation from the worldwide neighborhood. Officials and organizations have characterised the assaults and the blockade of help deliveries as deliberate efforts to annihilate a inhabitants.
In addition, Israel is dealing with a genocide case on the International Court of Justice attributable to its actions in Gaza.
