"The intention behind the emergence of the International Criminal Court (ICC) was to protect human safety through its unique global mandate of pursuing perpetrators of war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, using the principle of complementarity. The ICC is currently facing a series of political, technical and financial difficulties, which have been hindering its activity. The European Union and its Member States have emerged as its main donors. However, current funding is not sufficient. This report calls for the Commission and its Member States to increase their contributions, in order to cover important areas, not least raising awareness, victims’ services and the presence of the ICC on the ground. At the same time, it calls for the Member States to fully adopt ICC legislation and for the European Union to raise awareness among non-States Parties, particularly those on the United Nations Security Council: Russia, China and the United States. All kinds of atrocity against human life must be avoided. Violations must be condemned worldwide. This requires States Parties to coordinate their efforts in the event of non-cooperation with the ICC."@en1
