The International Criminal Court seeks to hold to account those guilty of some of the world’s worst crimes. Champions of the court say it deters would-be war criminals, bolsters the rule of law, and offers justice to victims of atrocities. But major governments including the USA, China and Russia are not ICC parties, and the ICC’s ongoing investigations of alleged crimes including arrest warrants in the Ukraine and Israel-Hamas wars represent a critical test for the court’s power. The ICC’s Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan will discuss the role of the court and the challenges it faces in ongoing conflicts such as those in Ukraine and Israel / Gaza. He will be joined in conversation by GCHQ Director of Legal Affairs and Mission Policy Shehzad Charania MBE.
