Amendments on the crime of aggression
Hi UKRegulator! You recently made several edits with regard to the Rome Statute's amendments on the crime of aggression. You stated that "2017 is when the member states can next review the definition of 'crime of aggression' - not when it will come into force." However, this does not appear to be the case. The amendments themselves state that "[t]he Court shall exercise jurisdiction over the crime of aggression in accordance with this article, subject to a decision to be taken after 1 January 2017 by the same majority of States Parties as is required for the adoption of an amendment to the Statute." Furthermore, according to the ICC's FAQ page, "[t]he Court may exercise jurisdiction over the crime of aggression, subject to a decision to be taken after 1 January 2017 by a two-thirds majority of States Parties and subject to the ratification of the amendment concerning this crime by at least 30 States Parties." – Zntrip 23:29, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
