What an example to choose. I.C.C. Won’t Investigate China’s Detention of Muslims
From your article:
“Prosecutors in The Hague said on Monday that they would not, for the moment, investigate allegations that China had committed genocide and crimes against humanity regarding the Uighurs, a predominantly Muslim ethnic group, because the alleged crimes took place in China, which is not a party to the court.”
They have no legal jurusdiction in China.
They don’t have legal jurisdiction in the United States either!
No, they have jurisdiction in the State of Palestine, you know, where the crimes are happening.

Which is how they charged Israel for the ongoing genocide, Israel isn’t an ICC states party either, but you run around committing crimes in a states party, yeah, they do have jurisdiction.
Same for Ukraine and Russia.
https://asp.icc-cpi.int/states-parties/eastern-european-states/ukraine - Member state, Russia is not. Putin gets charged as a war criminal.
So if Putin, like China, started committing atrocities inside his own country, the ICC couldn’t cover it, not an ICC issue.
