Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up
Chapter 1959 Public Approval 2
The International Court of Justice at The Hague; the International Court of Justice at The Hague, located in The Hague, Netherlands; the full name is the United Nations International Court of Justice, referred to as the International Court of Justice, etc. It is one of the six major organs of the United Nations and the most important judicial organ. It is an intergovernmental civil judicial institution of sovereign states. According to the Charter of the United Nations, it was established on 1
Although it has been questioned by some after decades of establishment, no other international organization can be found; it is better than nothing. Therefore, when Niger invited the International Court of Justice in The Hague to send representatives to supervise the trial of French prisoners and French foremans who had harmed Nigeriens, the whole world was in an uproar.
When did Africans become so civilized that they knew how to use the pressure of public opinion? If the International Court of Justice in The Hague refuses, then its credibility will inevitably be greatly compromised. But agreeing with the past, it was more of a puppet role; the French must be unhappy.
As one of the five permanent members of the United Nations, the International Court of Justice in The Hague naturally knows who to lean toward; but now that media around the world has reported on it, it can only bite the bullet.
In fact, all of this is controlled by Bao Zixuan. The French have deep-rooted influence in Africa. If they want to compress France's living space, pressure on the local area has little effect. Even if the country was destroyed in World War II, De Gaulle was still able to form an army of dozens of people in Africa. An army of ten thousand.
Therefore, if you want to reduce France to a second-rate country, the mainland is only one of them; Africa is where the core interests lie.
Without African mineral resources and cheap labor, the development of France will not only stagnate, but the speed will definitely slow down. It can be dealt with in a short period of time, but it will be difficult to say if things go on like this.
After all, the French are used to living a luxurious life, and it is easy to go from simplicity to luxury; from luxury to simplicity, most people really can't do it. But there are not many mineral resources in France. As for industrial products, due to the strong rise of Heiyun Group and Japan and Germany eyeing it, it is not as easy as imagined!
Exports of weapons and equipment are gradually declining due to the Soviet Union's indifference and serious breach of contract during the Falklands War. At present, except for cosmetics and luxury goods, there are no products available.
The land of France, with welfare benefits several times higher than those in the world, looks very beautiful; but as long as you grasp the pulse, it is also extremely fragile!
According to regulations, the International Court of Justice at The Hague is composed of 15 judges; judge candidates need to obtain an absolute majority of votes in the United Nations Security Council and the United Nations General Assembly to be elected. The term of each term is /3 to maintain the continuity of work; all judges elect the president by secret ballot, and the term of each term of the president is three years.
Judges are the soul of the International Court of Justice. Although their number is small, regional balance must also be taken into consideration. All 15 judges must be from different countries; they must represent all major cultures and major legal systems in the world. Its quota allocation method is consistent with the allocation of seats on the Security Council, and must take into account the world's major cultures and major legal systems. According to this principle, there are three from Asia, three from Africa, two from Latin America, five from Western Europe, North America, and Oceania, and two from Eastern Europe.
At this moment, fifteen justices held an emergency meeting, and Niger issued an invitation; the International Court of Justice in The Hague must respond!
Recently, it was the turn of a Latin American judge to preside over the meeting; coincidentally, the judge was an Argentinian. It has long been obvious that the French were unhappy. If the Gallic Rooster hadn't stabbed them in the back at the critical moment, refused to deliver the goods after receiving money, and leaked the interference frequency of the Exocet missile, Argentina would have won the first Falklands War.
At this moment, the Malvinas Islands have long been hoisted with the Argentine flag, so there is no need to continue the war. Even now, the French are still supporting Britain; otherwise Argentina would not be so passive.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Assuming France can't take care of itself, it still has the ability to support Britain. At that time, we will definitely go all out to deal with Niger. The greater the conflict, the more beneficial it will be to Argentina!
The representative of Argentina said very seriously: "Everyone, now that Niger has issued an invitation, the International Court of Justice in The Hague must respond. Otherwise, it will not be able to explain to the world, and it will defeat the original intention of establishing the International Court of Justice!"
Although the fifteen justices have no relationship with their home countries since joining the International Court of Justice in The Hague, they are more lip service. When they can contribute to the motherland, no one will miss it.
Everyone knows what's going on, it's just hard to explain clearly; and when it comes to France and Niger, judges from other countries do not need to recuse themselves.
The Western European representatives are from Switzerland, which has a good relationship with France; and before coming here, they had received domestic information and tried their best to prevent the International Court of Justice in The Hague from sending representatives to Niger.
The International Court of Justice in The Hague represents authority. If they go by, it will be difficult to explain clearly and to characterize the incident.
According to the current situation, the French will definitely be found guilty; the presence of the International Court of Justice in The Hague means that the trial is legal. Since the trial is legal, it means that it is completely legal for Niger to terminate its contracts and treaties with France; France has invaded and oppressed Niger. If that were the case, France would be sending troops to intervene; that would be interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign country and an act of aggression.
Although everyone knows what happened, they must not legalize the incident; France will not end well by then.
Seeing that no one spoke, the Swiss representative said: "The situation in Niger is still unclear at present, and it is difficult to guarantee personal safety if we rush there. Even the trial should be held in The Hague, not Niger; this is unfair."
It sounds reasonable, but if you can become a justice, you are not an idiot, so you naturally understand the entanglements of interests involved!
The Eastern European representatives are from Hungary, which is still within the Soviet sphere of influence; they have received orders in advance. So he said without hesitation: "Actually, I think we should go there. This is an opportunity to promote the International Court of Justice in The Hague."
"Let African countries take a good look at the credibility of the National Court in The Hague; as long as they make reasonable requests, they will be fulfilled."
"As for personal safety, as long as the Nigeriens are not crazy, they will definitely not dare to attack us. If that happens, they will be the enemy of the whole world. If you are worried, I will formally apply to go to Niger."
Africa as a whole is lagging behind and has no confidence or awe in the various United Nations organizations. Sending supervisors at this moment can indeed have a publicity effect.
Since African affairs are involved, it is obvious that African representatives have more say.
The South African judge knew very well that this was something that would offend people; he did not want to speak. He doesn’t want to be blamed for harming African interests and fighting for rights, and he also doesn’t want to offend the French. After all, many of the country’s weapons and equipment still need to be purchased from France!
Now everyone is looking at him, his meaning is very obvious; he must take a stand!
The South African judge thought for a moment and said: "The invitation from Niger is indeed a good opportunity to promote the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Moreover, Niger applied in accordance with formal procedures and there is no reason to refuse."
"The life of the African people is really too hard; the whole world should take a good look at it. As an important United Nations agency, we should not flinch at all when we shoulder our responsibilities!"
France needs more from South Africa, and its own statement should not make the Gallic Roosters fall out. If you object at this time, I guess someone will throw eggs in your face when you return to Africa.
As Africa's leading economy, although economic development has slowed down in recent years, South Africa's status in Africa cannot be ignored! The South African judges have all expressed their stance, and two other African judges have also echoed their opinions. The meaning is very clear, staff should be sent to Niger to conduct so-called supervision!
The African representatives have all expressed their stance, giving the Argentine judge hope; so he directly said: "The debate is meaningless, let's express our stance now; if you agree to send representatives to Niger, please raise your hands."
After speaking, he raised his hand first to show his agreement! The three African judges also raised their hands without hesitation.
Two judges from Eastern Europe followed, then three from Asia; the deal was set; the outcome was determined. Others did not want to bear the infamy. Except for the Swiss judge, all the others raised their hands.
The representatives of the neutral countries disagreed, which is funny to say; maybe they have never been neutral in their hearts!
The Argentine judge said very seriously: "Based on the voting results, it was agreed to send staff to Niger to supervise the trial."
Now that the results of the discussion have been reached, the next question is who to send.
In the end, Argentine judges, Hungarian judges, and an Asian judge were the leaders; together with other staff, a total of 23 representatives went to Niger.
The National Tribunal in The Hague has more of a symbolic meaning and usually has little work; being able to enter Africa will definitely benefit the court itself!
