The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has announced that the Deputy Prime Minister, Dominic Raab, has on 24 March 2022, gathered global ministers to the Hague in order to formulate an international package of support for the International Criminal Court (ICC)

Lexis®Library update: The UK plans to offer the ICC military, policing and £1m in financial support in the global response to Russian war crimes in Ukraine.

Foreign Office Minister of State, James Cleverly, has said: ‘The UK led the way in calling for an investigation into Russian war crimes earlier this month - the largest referral in the history of the International Criminal Court. It is vital that the ICC is able to carry out that investigation and that’s why the UK will provide military, policing and financial support to help uncover evidence of such crimes, and ultimately seek justice.’
