In the past months, I have been thinking a lot about the systematic suppression of freedom of expression worldwide.

Thanks to the NQHR for the opportunity to further elaborate some thoughts originally shared in a post published by the Geneva Graduate Institute

Today the faith in the integrity of the International Criminal Court and its judges, and the idea of international justice has been strengthened.

Regardless of how long it takes for Netanyahu & Gallant to appear before the judges, no one can now claim in good faith the ICC is useless or corrupt.
The ICC PTC's #Netanyahu #Gallant arrest warrants for war crimes and crimes against humanity in #Gaza show that the strategies (including intimidation and surveillance) Israel has used to derail the Court, failed.

I hope all those who have attacked the ICC over the past months take time to reflect.
⚡️ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I rejects the State of #Israel’s challenges to jurisdiction and ISSUES warrants of arrest for Benjamin #Netanyahu and Yoav #Gallant.

⚡️Judges ISSUED warrants of arrest for BOTH: Netanyahu and Gallant are now officially ICC SUSPECTS. Tremendous!

Great discussions yesterday about the EU as an imperfect global actor in search and rescue at sea (esil-sedi.eu/ig-on-the-eu...). @verapiovesan.bsky.social and I presented our considerations of letting migrants drown in the Mediterranean as a crime of genocide.

Exciting discussions about genocide and the ocean today. Thank you Eric Loeffland and Vicky Kapogianni for organising! @verapiovesan.bsky.social and I presented our argument about the drowining of migrants in the mediterranean to be conceptualized in terms of genocide.
