Today’s R&D covers the International Criminal Court (ICC). Founded in 2002, the ICC puts individuals on trial for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Over 120 nations belong to the ICC, but the United States is not a member, having never ratified the Rome Statute. The ICC has been criticized in recent years by African leaders as unfairly targeting their continent, and it recently drew the ire of the international press for shelving the trial of Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta due to a lack of evidence.
