The International Criminal Court (ICC), established under the Rome Statute in 2002, stands as a beacon of global justice. Tasked with prosecuting individuals for the gravest crimes that concern the international community, the ICC addresses genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and the crime of aggression. Operating on the principle of complementarity, the ICC intervenes when national jurisdictions are unwilling or unable to act, ensuring that the most heinous offenses do not go unpunished.
