Denmark in UN NY🇩🇰

Abyei must not be drawn into Sudan’s war or South Sudan’s instability.

At the #UNSC, DK condemned the deadly drone strikes on Amiet Market & called for accountability.

DK supports a robust renewal of #UNISFA’s mandate with the protection of civilians at its core.

🗳️Today, #UNGA and #UNSC elect judges to @CIJ_ICJ for the term 2027-2036.

Wishing all nine candidates every success!

🇩🇰 firmly supports the #ICJ’s essential work to uphold international law and resolve disputes peacefully ⚖️

The @IntlCrimCourt must be able to exercise its mandate independently and impartially, free from political interference and external pressure.

At today’s ICC debate, 🇩🇰 on behalf of the Nordics, reaffirmed our unwavering support for the ICC and the fight against impunity.⚖️

Denmark was happy to bring together eight #ICJ candidates at a well-attended roundtable discussion today. First time ever that such an event has taken place. Many thanks to the candidates for engaging in discussions and good luck to all in the elections on Tuesday!

This week, High Court Judge Mette Lyster Knudsen, Nordic #ICC Judge Candidate for 2027–36, nominated by 🇩🇰, met with ICC States Parties during International Law Week at the UN.

With the Court under unprecedented pressure, strong, independent judges are needed more than ever!👩‍⚖️
