Senate urged to back International Criminal Court
July 30, 2011
MANILA — Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario urged the Senate to give its concurrence to the Rome Statute establishing the International Criminal Court (ICC).
“The position that we take on this important issue reaffirms our country’s leading role in promoting justice, peace and the rule of law in Asia, being a model of democracy in this part of the world,” Del Rosario said.
President Benigno Aquino III ratified the Rome Statute last May 6.
Under the 1987 Constitution, treaties ratified by the President need the concurrence of the Senate before these can enter into force and effect.
The Rome Statute was concluded in 1998 by the UN Diplomatic Conference of Plenipotentiaries on the Establishment of an ICC that was participated in by some 140 countries, including the Philippines.
The statute entered into force on July 1, 2002, after 60 states had become parties.
The ICC, which is headquartered in The Hague, The Netherlands, has jurisdiction over the most serious crimes of concern to the international community, namely genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and aggression.
To date, there are 116 states that have either ratified or acceded to the Rome Statute, 15 of which are from Asia and the Pacific, including Cambodia, East Timor, Korea, Australia, and Japan. (Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)
