Navi Pillay on the ICC and accusations of bias against Africa

GlobeAlert Desk · curated from France 24 [en] · global

Former ICC judge and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay was awarded the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize for her work promoting peace and international law. The South African jurist has spent decades fighting impunity, from apartheid-era abuses to the Rwandan genocide. But the International Criminal Court has faced persistent criticism in Africa, particularly over the perception that it has disproportionately targeted African leaders. FRANCE 24’s Clarisse Fortune spoke to Navi Pillay and asked her whether that criticism is justified.
