00:00How much power does the ICC have to enforce arrest warrants?
00:10What do Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu have in common?
00:14Well, they are both serving heads of state subject to arrest warrants from the International Criminal Court.
00:20In theory, ICC arrest warrants are legally binding on states that have ratified the Rome Statute.
00:26In practice, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was able to travel to Hungary in early April.
00:32He was not arrested despite Hungary being a current member of the ICC.
00:36So, what is the ICC's remit of power?
00:40For the ICC to succeed, it needs the support of governments because its powers are limited.
00:45The power it has is for judges to take decisions, but those decisions need to be enforced by the governments that belong to the ICC
00:55and set this court up to do exactly what it's doing.
00:58For some critics, the fact that ICC arrest warrants can be flouted renders them worthless.
01:04However, legal experts told Euroverify that they can still act as a pressure mechanism.
01:09Since an ICC arrest warrant was placed on Putin, he has avoided travelling to ICC signatories,
01:14with the exception of Mongolia, which did not execute the warrant.
01:18Despite this legal failure by Mongolia, the response offered by the ICC has been qualified as weak.
01:25They could suspend Mongolia's, you know, voting rights within that body, suspend its ability to nominate candidates to the ICC bench.
01:34They have a Mongolian judge.
01:36But so far, actually, this body of ICC members has been really reluctant, I'm sorry to say, to take measures.
01:44Really, it doesn't go beyond just saying, OK, we've seen the decision from the judges and, you know, we note that there hasn't been compliance.
01:52At this point, I miss you all.
