Jordan, Palestine (observer state), and Tunisia are the only ICC member states in the MENA region. Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, Syria, United Arab Emirates, Yemen, and Israel have not ratified the Rome Statute.
Best example with the ICC– Syria with 12 million displaced human beings and over 500,000 civilian casualties, there would be some welcome relief if those most responsible for the heinous and barbaric crimes committed against civilians during this conflict were held to account. –Good luck!
Problem- the ICC has limited jurisdiction in Syria as it is not a party to the Rome Statute (the ICC’s governing treaty). The only other means by which the ICC could investigate alleged crimes committed in Syria is via a United Nations Security Council referral. However, as is well documented, Russia, a strong ally of the Assad regime, has vetoed or threatened to veto all efforts by the Security Council to refer the situation in Syria to the ICC.
