Recent events have highlighted the challenges facing international law and the International Criminal Court (ICC). The credibility and reach of international law have been called into question as governments have dismissed arrest warrants issued by the ICC in high-profile cases.
In the past 18 months, the ICC has issued arrest warrants for Russian President Vladimir Putin, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and a senior Hamas official. These warrants have sparked varied reactions from different countries, with some opting not to enforce them and others openly rejecting them.
