Responsibility before the International Criminal Court for crimes under international law committed during the conflict in Ukraine

  • Hanna Kuczyńska
Published: 2024-02-04

Abstract

Before the International Criminal Court (ICC), individuals are held responsible for crimes under international law, which are listed in Article 5 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. It is currently the only international court that exercises universal jurisdiction in criminal matters of international concern. Only specific individuals whose actions displayed the elements of the crime can therefore be prosecuted for committing a crime under international law. The question whether a person may be held criminally responsible in this forum should be considered at successive levels of analysis.
