BIG mistake by Russia! It voted for Res. 2774 which has the new formulation "Russian Federation-Ukraine conflict" (as noted by Switzerland), thus admitting it is a "party" to a "dispute". This legal determination in 2774 means now Russia MUST abstain on Ukraine Ch. VI votes per Article 27(3).

Another day and another example from #Trump to bring to class - would this be collective punishment or a failure to distinguish targets? “To the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are DEAD!”

Dr Hussam Abu Safyia, I bear witness to your detention as if you were a Ukrainian doctor detained in Russian-occupied territory in violation of customary IHL. I wish my U.K. and German colleagues did likewise for there is no difference. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/02/o...

The ICC will now face the toughest test in its history. It may not survive the Netanyahu arrest warrant. But it had no other option - failing to issue the warrants would have damaged its credibility beyond repair.

Dehumanizing the enemy is a sad road of war. But this road leads to anyone being dehumanized. Once that path is walked you cannot make exceptions www.justsecurity.org/104969/state...
