ICJ Delivers Order On Nicaragua V Germany Case

Tania von Uslar-Gleichen, the German diplomat leading Germany's legal team at the ICJ, is giving a press statement to the media and journalists in The Hague, Netherlands, on April 30, 2024, after the session ended with the court's verdict stating that Nicaragua's allegations ''have no basis in fact or law.'' The top United Nations court, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), has rejected Nicaragua's request to block Germany from selling weapons to Israel. The judges voted 15 against 1 and refused the request for an emergency order that would direct Germany to halt arms sales to Israel during a conflict with Palestinians in Gaza that Nicaragua claimed could be genocidal. The court concludes that the current circumstances do not require the exercise of its power to indicate provisional measures, as ICJ President Nawaf Salam wrote in the ruling. Outside of The Peace Palace, a protest in support of Palestine and Nicaragua is taking place.
