Turn to the ICJ before going down path to war, Registrar urges countries - a podcast by United Nations

The Registrar of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) is urging States to manage their disputes through the key UN institution’s courtroom, before considering taking up arms against each other.

The ICJ is the principal judicial organ of the United Nations. The man currently tasked with heading the Secretariat which assists the court, is Phillipe Gautier, who sat down with UN News in New York a few days ago, for a wide-ranging interview.

Jerome Bernard, of our UN News French team, began by asking him how the world’s top court had been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
