The court is “in the center of global commitment to account” and the international community should “highly support it”
The International Criminal Court’s administration agency said today that it is sorry for the retirement of Hungary from the Treaty of the ICC, considering that each departure is damaging the “common pursuit of justice”.
“When a Contracting Party departs from the Statute of Rome (the Founding Treaty of the ICT), this overshadows our common pursuit of justice and weakens our determination to combat impunity“, The presidency of the Member States Assembly said in a statement.
The court is “in the center of the world commitment to be held accountable” and the international community should “strongly support it”, the statement added.
“Justice requires our unity“, The presidency underlined.
At the same time, the bureau tended his hand to Hungary, considering that each member of the Rome Statute has “the right to express his concerns before the Convention”.
“Bureau is particularly encouraging Hungary to have a constructive discussion on this issue“And she urges her to”Continue to be a decisive member of the Rome Statute“.
Budapest announced today that it has begun the process of leaving the ICC at a time when Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban was welcoming his Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu, who was pending a warrant for arrest.
