This is NOT how an ICC suspect and fugitive from international justice should be received in a State Party to the Int'l Criminal Court. By failing to arrest #Putin, #Mongolia is violating the Rome Statute and its own legislation. Rule of law is in trouble in 🇲🇳.

“Welcoming Putin, an ICC fugitive, would not only be an affront to the many victims of Russian forces’ crimes, but would also undermine the crucial principle that no one, no matter how powerful, is above the law.” - Maria Elena Vignoli hrw.org/news/2024/09/0…

.Human Rights Watch noted that #Mongolia was among 94 countries that signed in June a joint statement declaring their “unwavering support” for the Int'l Criminal Court. Yet Mongolia welcomed Putin with a guard of honour, with no official response to the calls for it to honour the arrest warrant.

Disgusting. I hope victims find some small degree of solace in knowing that Putin's gang had to work hard to ensure he wouldn't be arrested in #Mongolia. Yes, he's travelling, but not nearly as easily as he used to. The #ICC is on his mind.

An interesting post, but the #ICC should not proceed with in abstentia confirmation of charges hearings against Kony to 'pave the way for Putin'. Uganda has often been treated as a laboratory for the Court to try things out in. That must not happen again. justsecurity.org/99033/joseph-k…

Netanyahu erasing Palestinian territory 👇 States shouldn't be concerned. They should *do* something about this menace.

No immediate claims of responsibility, but ISIL-KP has carried out similar attacks in the past. "Police in the Afghan capital say a suicide bomber carried out an attack Monday, killing at least six people and injuring 13 others." apnews.com/article/afghan…

The ICJ was clear: states cannot help to uphold the illegal occupation of the #WestBank. So, how is it possible that all Big Six banks in 🇨🇦 hold millions in 🇮🇱 defence stock (esp. Scotiabank)? They are at risk of complicity in war crimes. theglobeandmail.com/business/artic… #cdnpoli

Following the #ICJ's decision on 🇮🇱 illegal occupation of 🇵🇸 , states must "immediately review all diplomatic, political, and economic ties with Israel, inclusive of business and finance, pension funds, academia and charities.” That includes you, Canada. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…

Reports say that the #ICC judges are likely to decide whether to issue arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant 'over coming days' haaretz.com/israel-news/20… #Gaza

Important point 👇 To not issue a warrant for Haniyeh, the #ICC will need concrete evidence that he is dead. In the past, the Court has sometimes taken years to declare certain targets deceased (Otti) while in other cases managed to ascertain death quickly (Werfalli).

In Federal Court today to fight a last minute motion by Canada to hold historic #Abdelrazik trial behind closed doors. CSIS was complicit in the arbitrary detention of our Montreal client by Sudanese security agency renowned for torture. cbc.ca/news/politics/…
