International Criminal Court’s Political Nature

Illustration for: International Criminal Court's Political Nature

In an interview with ‘Sputnik’ radio, Johnny stated: ‘The only difference is that a number of countries have joined it, which makes it different from the International Court of Justice,’ emphasizing that ‘a state that is not a party to the court’s system cannot be prosecuted.’ He asserted that ‘the International Criminal Court is highly political in favor of Western European countries,’ noting that ‘there are countries that signed the Rome Statute and then withdrew their signatures, like the United States of America, which is contrary to international law.’
