      Justification from their site on why they don’t go to International Court of Justice:

      ‘There is no such possibility not least because China/the PRC, although a signatory to and ratifier of the Genocide Convention, has entered a reservation against ICJ jurisdiction.’

      What does this even mean lmao ?

        It means China isn’t governed by the ICJ, despite being a ratifier. ICJ has no power in PRC.

          ICJ is international law and as all international instance have no power in any country. This make no sense nor does this joke of a tribunal have any power in China aswell.
