Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

The ICC and ICJ are different entities and China is an ICJ member state.
What are you talking about dronie?
You edited your comment. I guess honesty is too much to ask from a dronie.
The ICJ can still hold a trial, but the Security Council would be able to override whatever judgement it reached. That's why Israel is being tried in the ICJ even though the US is obviously going to override a guilty verdict. Yet no one even bothered. Why?
Because China is economically important, unlike Israel, and can retaliate? Because China doesn't recognize the ICJ's jurisdiction? Because bringing a case against someone who directly has veto power is significantly fucking stupider than bringing a case against someone whose ally has veto power?
That the UN has already recognized the position of Uyghurs in China, of course, is beyond the capability of tankies to understand, since you cretins are only interested in licking fascist boots.
China has a judge on the ICJ!
Last I checked, the U.N. rights council voted down the motion brought by United States, Canada and Britain to debate the matter.
And as I keep pointing out, those same member states which accuse China of genocide are defending Israel. There's no credibility to the accusations.
And so does the US, yet the US doesn't recognize the ICJ's jurisdiction over itself either. I see international politics are too complex for you to understand. Perhaps you should try something more like checkers.
