At last some perspective on the European Union awarding the Sakharov Prize to a racist court.

The EU admits that it economically blackmails Global South states into not leaving the corrupt EU-controlled ICC.

'You also have a price to pay' - Kallas warns EU-funded countries of consequences if they quit ICC
“We are supporting ICC, and we want it to be functional. And we are also pushing back against the arguments against the ICC,” Kallas added.
The remarks followed Washington's decision to sanction ICC, which the US argues threatens its sovereignty, while the court rejected the sanctions.
While very disappointing if true, it does show that Washington is very aware of the transactional and political nature of the EU and that the Europeans will try to strike a deal to save its corrupt court.

Absolutely shameful. Has Filipino sovereignty sunk so low that Marcos has become a colonial house servant for the European-funded ICC? Are Filipino police now the ICC's Gestapo?

There is clearly a price to be paid for being part of the corrupt and corrupted ICC.

A very interesting critique of the failings of the ICC, including a continuingly toxic work environment and attempts to illegally introduce universal jurisdiction by the back-door.

Chris Stephen: "And all the while, the ICC fails to deliver . . . Left to its own devices, the court has become a disciplinary nightmare laden with scattergun rulings . . . member states may be wondering if it is a project worth saving."

Chris Stephen: "its erratic behaviour has put off member states. Six have withdrawn from the ICC since June, and many don’t pay their annual contributions, leaving the court permanently in arrears."
counselmagazine.co.uk/articl…
Chris Stephen: "there are bitter divisions inside its boxy Hague headquarters. Harassment and bullying remain major issues, with internal investigators saying abuse complaints last year nearly doubled"
counselmagazine.co.uk/articl…
Chris Stephen: "The ICC is formed by treaty, and extending jurisdiction to other states breaks the principle that a treaty cannot bind non-parties. In effect, the court has declared global jurisdiction"

A serious blow for the ICC: A seriously important move against a corrupt racist pseudo-court and to reinforce the rule of law

The ICC "is not really a court. It uses the language of law, but it's really a political body."

States Parties from Latin America, Africa, Asia and the Pacific have now left this corrupt discredited court. Many more to follow.

The ICC, a corrupt and inept NGO masquerading as a court has had a track record of prosecutorial misconduct and evidentiary malpractice, hiding exculpatory evidence, and citing media.
