The Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted\n the own-initiative report by Wolfgang KREISSL-DÖRFLER (S&D, DE) on EU support for the International\n Criminal Court: facing challenges and overcoming difficulties.
Members begin by recalling thatthe ICC is\n the first permanent international judicial body capable of trying individuals\n for genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes, thus making a decisive\n contribution to upholding human rights and to international law by combating\n impunity. The Court plays a crucial deterrent role in sending a clear signal\n that impunity for these crimes will not be tolerated, thus\n contributing to security, justice and the rule of law as well as to the\n preservation of peace and the strengthening of international security.
However, Members stress thatthe fight\n against impunity can only succeed when all States Parties cooperate fully\n with the ICC, and when non-parties also provide assistance to the judicial\n institution.
Accordingly, the report makes certain observation\n and recommendations on strengthening cooperation.
1)The need to enhance support for the Court through political and diplomatic action: Members reiterate their full support for the ICC, the Rome Statute and the\n international criminal justice system, the Prosecutor’s proprio motu powers and the progress in\n initiating new investigations. They urge Parties and non-parties to the Rome Statute to\n refrain from exercising political pressure on the Court in order to preserve\n and guarantee its impartiality and to allow for justice to be\n dispensed based on law, rather than on political considerations.
Members underline the importance of the\n principle of universality, and call on the EEAS, the EU Member States and the\n Commission to continue their vigorous efforts to promote universal\n ratification of the Rome Statute and the Agreement on Privileges and\n Immunities of the International Criminal Court (APIC) and national\n implementing legislation.
Welcoming the revised EU Action Plan agreed on 12\n July 2011 which outlines effective, concrete measures to be taken by the EU\n to deepen its future support for the Court, Members stress that full\n and prompt cooperation between States Parties, including EU Member States,\n and the Court remains essential to the effectiveness and success of the\n international criminal justice system. They call on the EU and its Member\n States to comply with all requests by the Court to provide assistance and\n cooperation in a timely manner to ensure, inter alia, the\n execution of pending arrest warrants and the provision of information, including\n requests aimed at helping to identify, freeze and seize the financial assets\n of suspects.
Member States are also called upon to:
Fight against impunity for the worst crimes known to\n humanity: Members welcome the contribution of some EU Member\n States to the fight against impunity for the worst crimes known to humanity\n through the application of universal jurisdiction. They\n underline the fundamental role of international\n criminal jurisdictions in addressing the relevant violations of international\n law concerning the illegal recruitment of child soldiers. They firmly oppose\n children under the age of 18 years being conscripted into the armed forces or\n used in any way in military action.
Full cooperation with the ICC: Members take\n note of the Cooperation and Assistance Agreement between the EU and the ICC\n and call on EU Member States to apply the principle of universal\n jurisdiction in tackling impunity and crimes against humanity. They\n strongly encourage the EU and its Member States to use every diplomatic\n opportunity and diplomatic instrument to press for effective cooperation\n with the ICC, in particular with regard to the execution of pending arrest\n warrants. They also encourage the EU and its Member States, with the help of\n the EEAS, to put in place a set of stringent internal guidelines outlining a\n code of conduct for contact between EU and Member State officials and persons\n wanted by the ICC, in particular when the latter still occupy official posts.\n In the event of a partner country issuing an invitation to, or expressing a\n willingness to allow, visits on its territory by an individual who is the\n subject of an ICC arrest warrant, Members ask the EU and its Member States to\n exert strong pressure on that country without delay, with a view to either\n arresting or supporting an arrest operation or, as a minimum, to preventing\n the travel of such an individual. They note that recently such invitations\n have been issued to Sudan’s president Omar al-Bashir by Chad, China,\n Djibouti, Kenya and Malaysia among others without arresting him and\n surrendering him to the Court.
Execution of arrest warrants: the report notes thatthe majority of the 18 arrest warrants issued by the\n ICC have not yet been implemented, including those against Joseph Kony and\n other leaders of the Lord’s Resistance Army in respect of the situation in\n Northern Uganda, Bosco Ntaganda of the Democratic Republic of the Congo,\n Ahmad Muhammad Harun, Ali Muhammad Ali Abd-Al-Rahman and President Omar\n Hassan Ahmad Al Bashir of Sudan, and Muammar Mohammed Abu Minyar Gaddafi,\n Saif al-Islam Gaddafi and Abdullah Al-Senussi of Libya. Members recognise the\n recent decision by the ICC Prosecutor to issue arrest warrants for Colonel\n Gaddafi, his son Saif al-Islam and intelligence chief Abdullah al-Sanoussi,\n in relation to the alleged crimes against humanity and stress that their\n successful capture, and subsequent trial by the ICC, will serve as a crucial\n contribution to the fight against impunity in the region.
African States: Membersnote that African States had a major role in\n creating the ICC and regards their support and close cooperation as\n indispensable to the Court’s effective functioning and independence. They\n call on the African States Parties to the Rome Statute of the ICC to fulfil\n their obligations under the ICC Rome Statute and actively to support the task\n of holding the world’s worst offenders to account and break the cycle of\n impunity.
Actions in support of the ICC’s work:Members propose a series of measures to support the ICC,\n the main ones being as follows:
Other measures proposed include the following: i) calling\n on Turkey, the only official EU candidate that has not yet done so, to become\n a State Party to the Rome Statute; ii) affirming the crucial\n role of the EU Member States’ diplomatic support for the ICC’s mandate and\n for its activities in UN fora ; iii) enhancing diplomatic\n efforts to foster greater support for the Court in the UN Security Council,\n particularly for genocide ; iv) ensuring that coordination and\n cooperation with the ICC is included in the mandate of relevant regional EU\n Special Representatives (EUSRs); \n v) mainstreaming\n the ICC across the EU’s foreign policy priorities; vi) ensuring that the EEAS\n has the necessary expertise and high-level capacity to make the ICC a real\n priority; vii) making every effort to\n prosecute and punish the perpetrators of sex crimes against humanity.
Members also consider that the effectiveness of the\n principle of complementarity of the Court lies in the primary obligation of\n its States Parties to investigate and prosecute war crimes, genocide and\n crimes against humanity. They express concern that not all of the EU Member\n States have legislation defining these crimes under national law over which\n their courts can exercise jurisdiction.
2) The\n need to ensure further financial and logistical assistance for the Court: Members welcome\n the EU’s and individual Member States’ support for the ICC thus far and\n recommends that current forms of support are continued. They call on the EU\n and its Member States to support the Court’s efforts to enhance its field\n presence, as well as assisting communities victimised by crimes falling under\n the Court’s jurisdiction. They recommend that Member States continue to\n provide adequate funding for the ICC Trust Fund for Victims (in order to\n complement potential upcoming reparation awards while continuing to carry out\n current assistance activities) and to contribute to the newly established ICC\n Special Fund for Relocations, and other related Funds. Adequate and\n stable funding is also required for civil society actors working on\n ICC-related issues within the European Instrument for Democracy and Human\n Rights (EIDHR). The report also encourages Member States and the EEAS to\n start discussions relating to the review of current EU financial instruments,\n in particular the European Development Fund (EDF),with a view to\n examining how they could further contribute to supporting complementarity\n activities in beneficiary countries in order to boost the fight against\n impunity. All the ICC States Parties are asked to promote joint efforts to\n improve trials at national level of the most serious crimes.
Lastly, Members recall that the European Parliament\n was one of the earliest vocal supporters of the Court and calls for the\n insertion of a section on the fight against impunity and the ICC in the EP\n Annual Report on Human Rights in the world. They\n suggest that the European Parliament play a more proactive role by\n promoting and mainstreaming the fight against impunity and the ICC in all EU\n policies and institutions
\nThe European Parliament adopted by 532 votes to 14,\nwith 19 abstentions, a resolution on EU support for the\nInternational Criminal Court (ICC).
\nParliament recalls that the ICC is the first permanent\ninternational judicial body capable of trying individuals for\ngenocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes, thus making a\ndecisive contribution to upholding human rights and to\ninternational law by combating impunity. The Court plays a crucial\ndeterrent role in sending a clear signal that impunity for these\ncrimes will not be tolerated, thus contributing to security,\njustice and the rule of law as well as to the preservation of peace\nand the strengthening of international security.
\nHowever, it stresses that the fight against impunity\ncan only succeed when all States Parties cooperate fully with the\nICC, and when non-parties also provide assistance to the judicial\ninstitution.
\nAccordingly, the resolution makes certain observations\nand recommendations on strengthening cooperation which may be\nsummarised as follows:
\n1)The need to enhance support for the Court through\npolitical and diplomatic action:\nParliament reiterates its full support for the ICC, the Rome\nStatute and the international criminal justice system, the\nProsecutor's proprio motu powers and the progress in\ninitiating new investigations. It urges Parties and non-parties to\nthe Rome Statute to refrain from exercising political pressure on\nthe Court in order to preserve and guarantee its\nimpartiality and to allow for justice to be dispensed based\non law, rather than on political considerations.
\nParliament underlines the importance of the principle\nof universality, and calls on the EEAS, the EU Member States and\nthe Commission to continue their vigorous efforts to promote\nuniversal ratification of the Rome Statute and the Agreement on\nPrivileges and Immunities of the International Criminal Court\n(APIC) and national implementing legislation.
\nWelcoming the revised EU Action Plan agreed on 12 July\n2011 which outlines effective, concrete measures to be taken by the\nEU to deepen its future support for the Court, Parliament\nstresses that full and prompt cooperation between States\nParties, including EU Member States, and the Court remains\nessential to the effectiveness and success of the international\ncriminal justice system. It calls on the EU and its Member States\nto comply with all requests by the Court to provide assistance and\ncooperation in a timely manner to ensure, inter alia,\nthe execution of pending arrest warrants and the provision of\ninformation, including requests aimed at helping to identify,\nfreeze and seize the financial assets of suspects.

\nFight against impunity for the worst crimes known to\nhumanity: Parliament welcomes the\ncontribution of some EU Member States to the fight against impunity\nfor the worst crimes known to humanity through the application of\nuniversal jurisdiction. It underlines the fundamental role\nof international criminal jurisdictions in addressing the relevant\nviolations of international law concerning the illegal recruitment\nof child soldiers. It firmly opposes children under the age of 18\nyears being conscripted into the armed forces or used in any way in\nmilitary action.
\nParliament calls for the establishment of effective\npolicies and enhancing mechanisms to ensure that victims'\nparticipation at the ICC has substantive impact, including more\naccessible psychological, medical and legal counselling and easy\naccess to witness protection programmes. It highlights the\nimportance of promoting awareness of sexual violence in conflict\nzones by means of law programmes, the documentation of\ngender-based crimes in armed conflicts, and the training of\nlawyers, judges and activists on the Rome Statute and on\ninternational jurisprudence in relation to gender-based crimes\nagainst women and children.
\nFull cooperation with the ICC: Parliament notes the Cooperation and Assistance\nAgreement between the EU and the ICC and call on EU Member States\nto apply the principle of universal jurisdiction in tackling\nimpunity and crimes against humanity. It strongly encourages\nthe EU and its Member States to use every diplomatic opportunity\nand diplomatic instrument to press for effective cooperation\nwith the ICC, in particular with regard to the execution of pending\narrest warrants. It also encourages the EU and its Member States,\nwith the help of the EEAS, to put in place a set of stringent\ninternal guidelines outlining a code of conduct for contact between\nEU and Member State officials and persons wanted by the ICC, in\nparticular when the latter still occupy official posts. In the\nevent of a partner country issuing an invitation to, or expressing\na willingness to allow, visits on its territory by an individual\nwho is the subject of an ICC arrest warrant, Parliament asks the EU\nand its Member States to exert strong pressure on that country\nwithout delay, with a view to either arresting or supporting an\narrest operation or, as a minimum, to preventing the travel of\nsuch an individual. It notes that recently such invitations have\nbeen issued to Sudan's president Omar al-Bashir by Chad, China,\nDjibouti, Kenya and Malaysia among others without arresting him and\nsurrendering him to the Court.
\nExecution of arrest warrants: the plenary notes in an oral amendment that the\nmajority of the 17 arrest warrants issued by the ICC have not yet\nbeen implemented, including those against Joseph Kony and other\nleaders of the Lord's Resistance Army in respect of the situation\nin Northern Uganda, Bosco Ntaganda of the Democratic Republic of\nthe Congo, Ahmad Muhammad Harun, Ali Muhammad Ali Abd-Al-Rahman and\nPresident Omar Hassan Ahmad Al Bashir of Sudan, and Muammar\nMohammed Abu Minyar Gaddafi, Saif al-Islam Gaddafi and Abdullah\nAl-Senussi of Libya. In regard to Libya, Parliament recognises the\nrecent decision by the ICC Prosecutor to issue arrest warrants for\nColonel Gaddafi, his son Saif al-Islam and intelligence chief\nAbdullah al-Sanoussi, in relation to the alleged crimes against\nhumanity in their country since the beginning of the insurrection.\nIt stresses that their successful capture, and subsequent trial by\nthe ICC, will serve as a crucial contribution to the fight\nagainst impunity in the region.
\nAfrican States:\nParliament notes that African States had a major role in creating\nthe ICC and regards their support and close cooperation as\nindispensable to the Court's effective functioning and\nindependence. It calls on the African States Parties to the Rome\nStatute of the ICC to fulfil their obligations under the ICC\nRome Statute and actively to support the task of holding the\nworld's worst offenders to account and break the cycle of\nimpunity.
\nActions in support of the ICC's work: Parliament proposes a series of measures to support\nthe ICC, the main ones being as follows:
\nParliament stresses the need for the ICC to expand\nits focus beyond situations of armed conflict and, more\nproactively, to investigate human rights emergencies that escalate\nto the level of crimes against humanity.
\nOther more targeted measures proposed include the\nfollowing: (i) calling on Turkey, the\nonly official EU candidate that has not yet done so, to become a\nState Party to the Rome Statute; ii) affirming the crucial role of\nthe EU Member States' diplomatic support for the ICC's mandate and\nfor its activities in UN fora ; (iii) enhancing diplomatic\nefforts to foster greater support for the Court in the UN Security\nCouncil, particularly for genocide; (iv) ensuring that coordination\nand cooperation with the ICC is included in the mandate of relevant\nregional EU Special Representatives (EUSRs) and the appointment\nof an EUSR on International Humanitarian Law and International\nJustice with the mandate to promote, mainstream and represent\nthe EU's commitment to the fight against impunity and the ICC\nacross EU foreign policies; (v) mainstreaming the ICC across\nthe EU's foreign policy priorities; (vi) ensuring that the EEAS has\nthe necessary expertise and high-level capacity to make the ICC a\nreal priority; (vii) making every effort to prosecute and\npunish the perpetrators of sex crimes against\nhumanity.
\nParliament also considers that the effectiveness of\nthe principle of complementarity of the Court lies in the primary\nobligation of its States Parties to investigate and prosecute war\ncrimes, genocide and crimes against humanity. It expresses\nconcern that not all of the EU Member States have legislation\ndefining these crimes under national law over which their courts\ncan exercise jurisdiction.
\n2) The need to ensure further financial and logistical\nassistance for the Court:\nParliament welcomes the EU's and individual Member States' support\nfor the ICC thus far and recommends that current forms of\nsupport are continued. It calls on the EU and its Member States\nto support the Court's efforts to enhance its field presence, as\nwell as assisting communities victimised by crimes falling under\nthe Court's jurisdiction. It recommends that Member States continue\nto provide adequate funding for the ICC Trust Fund for Victims (in\norder to complement potential upcoming reparation awards while\ncontinuing to carry out current assistance activities) and to\ncontribute to the newly established ICC Special Fund for\nRelocations, and other related Funds. Adequate and stable\nfunding is also required for civil society actors working on\nICC-related issues within the European Instrument for Democracy and\nHuman Rights (EIDHR). The resolution also encourages Member States\nand the EEAS to start discussions relating to the review of current\nEU financial instruments, in particular the European Development\nFund (EDF), with a view to examining how they could further\ncontribute to supporting complementary activities in beneficiary\ncountries in order to boost the fight against impunity. All the ICC\nStates Parties are asked to promote joint efforts to improve trials\nat national level of the most serious crimes.
\nLastly, Parliament recalls that the European\nParliament was one of the earliest vocal supporters of the Court\nand calls for the insertion of a section on the fight against\nimpunity and the ICC in the EP Annual Report on Human Rights in the\nworld. It suggests that the European Parliament play a more\nproactive role by promoting and mainstreaming the fight against\nimpunity and the ICC in all EU policies and\ninstitutions.
\nThe Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted\n the own-initiative report by Wolfgang KREISSL-DÖRFLER (S&D, DE) on EU support for the International\n Criminal Court: facing challenges and overcoming difficulties.
Members begin by recalling thatthe ICC is\n the first permanent international judicial body capable of trying individuals\n for genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes, thus making a decisive\n contribution to upholding human rights and to international law by combating\n impunity. The Court plays a crucial deterrent role in sending a clear signal\n that impunity for these crimes will not be tolerated, thus\n contributing to security, justice and the rule of law as well as to the\n preservation of peace and the strengthening of international security.
However, Members stress thatthe fight\n against impunity can only succeed when all States Parties cooperate fully\n with the ICC, and when non-parties also provide assistance to the judicial\n institution.
Accordingly, the report makes certain observation\n and recommendations on strengthening cooperation.
1)The need to enhance support for the Court through political and diplomatic action: Members reiterate their full support for the ICC, the Rome Statute and the\n international criminal justice system, the Prosecutor’s proprio motu powers and the progress in\n initiating new investigations. They urge Parties and non-parties to the Rome Statute to\n refrain from exercising political pressure on the Court in order to preserve\n and guarantee its impartiality and to allow for justice to be\n dispensed based on law, rather than on political considerations.
Members underline the importance of the\n principle of universality, and call on the EEAS, the EU Member States and the\n Commission to continue their vigorous efforts to promote universal\n ratification of the Rome Statute and the Agreement on Privileges and\n Immunities of the International Criminal Court (APIC) and national\n implementing legislation.
Welcoming the revised EU Action Plan agreed on 12\n July 2011 which outlines effective, concrete measures to be taken by the EU\n to deepen its future support for the Court, Members stress that full\n and prompt cooperation between States Parties, including EU Member States,\n and the Court remains essential to the effectiveness and success of the\n international criminal justice system. They call on the EU and its Member\n States to comply with all requests by the Court to provide assistance and\n cooperation in a timely manner to ensure, inter alia, the\n execution of pending arrest warrants and the provision of information, including\n requests aimed at helping to identify, freeze and seize the financial assets\n of suspects.
Member States are also called upon to:
Fight against impunity for the worst crimes known to\n humanity: Members welcome the contribution of some EU Member\n States to the fight against impunity for the worst crimes known to humanity\n through the application of universal jurisdiction. They\n underline the fundamental role of international\n criminal jurisdictions in addressing the relevant violations of international\n law concerning the illegal recruitment of child soldiers. They firmly oppose\n children under the age of 18 years being conscripted into the armed forces or\n used in any way in military action.
Full cooperation with the ICC: Members take\n note of the Cooperation and Assistance Agreement between the EU and the ICC\n and call on EU Member States to apply the principle of universal\n jurisdiction in tackling impunity and crimes against humanity. They\n strongly encourage the EU and its Member States to use every diplomatic\n opportunity and diplomatic instrument to press for effective cooperation\n with the ICC, in particular with regard to the execution of pending arrest\n warrants. They also encourage the EU and its Member States, with the help of\n the EEAS, to put in place a set of stringent internal guidelines outlining a\n code of conduct for contact between EU and Member State officials and persons\n wanted by the ICC, in particular when the latter still occupy official posts.\n In the event of a partner country issuing an invitation to, or expressing a\n willingness to allow, visits on its territory by an individual who is the\n subject of an ICC arrest warrant, Members ask the EU and its Member States to\n exert strong pressure on that country without delay, with a view to either\n arresting or supporting an arrest operation or, as a minimum, to preventing\n the travel of such an individual. They note that recently such invitations\n have been issued to Sudan’s president Omar al-Bashir by Chad, China,\n Djibouti, Kenya and Malaysia among others without arresting him and\n surrendering him to the Court.
Execution of arrest warrants: the report notes thatthe majority of the 18 arrest warrants issued by the\n ICC have not yet been implemented, including those against Joseph Kony and\n other leaders of the Lord’s Resistance Army in respect of the situation in\n Northern Uganda, Bosco Ntaganda of the Democratic Republic of the Congo,\n Ahmad Muhammad Harun, Ali Muhammad Ali Abd-Al-Rahman and President Omar\n Hassan Ahmad Al Bashir of Sudan, and Muammar Mohammed Abu Minyar Gaddafi,\n Saif al-Islam Gaddafi and Abdullah Al-Senussi of Libya.
