Is ICC verdict on Thomas Lubanga of Congo a victory?

Issued on:

The International Criminal Court gave its first ever verdict in its ten year history on Wednesday with the conviction for war crimes of Congolese militia chief Thomas Lubanga. But the lengthy procedure in reaching a verdict has raised concerns about the court's effectiveness. Francisco Resek, a former judge at the International Court of Justice and former Brazilian Foreign Minister, spoke to RFI about the verdict.
