The EU and its Member States underline that those who have committed serious crimes of concern to the international community, including war crimes, crimes against humanity or the crime of genocide must be brought to justice.
In line with its efforts to fight impunity, the EU and its Member States pledge:
– to continue to promote the universality and preserve the integrity of the Rome Statute.
– to include the fight against impunity for the most serious crimes of international concern as one of the shared values of the EU and its partners through the insertion of provisions concerning the ICC and international justice into its agreements with candidate countries and third parties.
– to continue their support to the Court, civil society and to the third States interested in receiving assistance in order to become party to the Rome Statute or to implement it.
