The former Chief Justice said justice was being sacrificed for political gain.
Fatou Bensouda, former chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), talks about the threats, pressure, and sanctions he experienced during the Palestinian investigation. She warned that international justice was being sacrificed for political gain, explaining that Israel wanted to stop the investigation and had no support from ICC members. Bensouda also reflects on U.S. sanctions, accusations of double standards at the ICC, and whether leaders like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu can be taken to court.
