ABC News used quite a bit of what I shared with them in a recent interview about the status of civilians in Ukraine — including my categorical condemnation of the flagrant aggression being perpetrated by Russia. abcnews.go.com/amp/Internatio…

I am very proud of my colleague Dr. Beth Van Schaack, who has been confirmed to serve as Ambassador for Global Criminal Justice. I can think of no one more qualified to take on the challenges of this role.

On 1/30/20, WHO designated COVID a public health emergency & Meta announced we would remove some categories of COVID misinfo. Throughout the pandemic, we updated this policy many times. Amidst pandemic ambiguity, how did Meta develop this policy? about.fb.com/news/2020/12/c… 1/13

Is the international legal order unravelling? A new edited volume from @DavidSloss6 weighs in. In it, Allen Weiner and I show states remain committed to the UN Charter framework by examining states' legal justifications for the use of force. Pre-order: whsmith.co.uk/products/is-th…

Is the international legal order unravelling? Find out at the book launch event for a new edited volume by @DavidSloss6, in which Allen Weiner and I discuss ~change and continuity~ in how states legally justify transnational uses of force. Register: tinyurl.com/ilobooklaunch

"Possible or potential future use" turns any object into a military objective. The evidentiary standard in IHL is higher, as any military lawyer would tell you if you argued "possible or potential future civilian harm" should be counted in a collateral damage estimate.

Of course “possible or potential future use” is not the standard for a permissible military target. That said, that does not appear to be what the document excerpt posted here actually claims.

I’m deeply saddened by the spectacle at the White House with President Zelenskyy today. When did our leaders decide that America should be a blustering bully on the world stage, rather than a force for peace, stability, and freedom?

I just published this OpEd in The Hill regarding the Trump Administration’s mandated review of whether the treaties to which the U.S. is a party are in the national interest. Bottom line: We joined them because they are in our national interest. thehill.com/opinion/white-…
