In an interview with FRANCE 24, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Navi Pillay described the US sanctions imposed on the International Criminal Court (ICC) hours after her award as “a shock” and “unacceptable”. The South African judge also defended the UN commission of inquiry she chaired which concluded that Israel had committed genocide in Gaza: “We didn’t come to that conclusion lightly.” Rejecting claims that the ICC targets Africa, she said “the court is not selective”.
