ICC President Commends Sakharov Prize
The President of the International Criminal Court, Judge Tokuko Aki, expressed her pride in the Court being awarded the Sakharov Prize by the European Union, despite the unprecedented challenges it faces, including U.S. sanctions that threaten the Court’s independence and impact the salaries and resources of its 900 staff members, as well as its heavy reliance on Microsoft technology. She emphasized that the award highlights the crucial role of independent judicial institutions in supporting international law, and that in a world witnessing increasing conflicts, peace can only be achieved through legal justice, especially in light of sanctions aimed at undermining the Court’s jurisdiction.
