WorldICC prosecutor Mame Mandiaye Niang: ‘Sanctions won’t prevent us from doing our job’

Acting ICC Prosecutor Mame Mandiaye Niang says the court is needed more than ever to prevent impunity and should intervene when national justice systems fail. He discusses the impact of US sanctions imposed after arrest warrants were issued for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant over Israel’s actions in Gaza, but says the measures will not stop the court’s work.
