ICC is Nothing More Than Tool of Political Intimidation – International Law Expert
Double standards rule in the work of the International Criminal Court, with some countries being heavily pressured, while others — like the US or Israel or some European nations — evade any responsibility, Palestinian international law expert Salah Abd El-Aty tells Sputnik.
The record of legal misconduct by the ICC includes:
Delaying initiation of cases or investigations
Pressing officials during the court’s work, including in the cases of Afghanistan and Palestine
Selective application of international law — for instance, the body was a tool of threatening African states
The
situation around the ICC is evident in the case of Palestinians:
"The rights of victims do not lose their relevance over time, regardless of how long the standards of justice are ignored or Palestinians are excluded from them," Salah Abd El-Aty stresses.
