Around 10% of global GDP is held in #offshore accounts... not all of this wealth may be ill-gotten, but certainly much of it isn't legitimately held.
Is now the time a new International Anti-Corruption Court?
So later this month in Hamburg a group of #lawyers & #Jurists are starting to write a potential treaty to offer a complementary court to the #ICC.
Peter Hain wants the UK to get involved. As he says: 'It’s no good vocally criticising corruption while turning a blind eye to it' at home'!

Von den normalen Messehallen gab es einen Übergang zum ICC. Während der Funkausstellung wurde dort der richtig heiße Shice aus der Forschung gezeigt. Kann mich z. B. noch gut an #HDTV erinnern. Ein echter #LostPlace, der für 48h Stunden nochmals öffnet: Das #ICC #Berlin.

It's not as farfetched as it sounds.
Even countries that didn't sign the Rome Statute, the treaty that created the International Criminal Court, can invite the Court in, giving them jurisdiction over crimes against humanity. #Ukraine invited the #ICC in to investigate #RussianWarCrimes.
The U.S. could do the same, raising the possibility of trials at the Hague for Texas officials, and Trump officials who separated children from their families.

@SocraticEthics Doesn’t #Iran have billions of dollars in #FrozenAssets abroad? 🤔
Supplying arms to #Russia so that it can commit what have ALREADY be identified as #WarCrimes in #Ukraine by the #ICC seems like a stupid - and very expensive - mistake by the #Mullahs running the #IslamicRepublic.

#DonaldTheDeplorable is the first #POTUS to be indicted for a federal crime. The evidence is damning, with conviction highly probable and a lengthy prison sentence required by law.
Speaking of the dammed; when the #Russians who ordered and destroyed the Nova Kakhovka Dam in #Ukraine are identified, they could be the first tried by the #ICC for the #WarCrime of #Ecocide. 👉 https://www.justsecurity.org/86862/could-the-nova-kakhovka-dam-destruction-become-the-iccs-first-environmental-crimes-case/
