Burundi
Earlier this month, Burundi became the first nation to formally request withdrawal from the ICC. The decision to leave the court comes six months after ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensouda said her office would launch an investigation into last year’s politically motivated violence, in which hundreds of Burundians lost their lives.
Burundi’s government said its decision was based on the ICC’s history of seeking selective justice, which unfairly targets Africans. Speaking about his country’s resolve, Burundi Vice President Gaston Sindimwo said the country was ready to face the consequences of its decision from the rest of the international community.
