国际刑事法庭(ICC)成员国选择冈比亚律师Fatou Bensouda为新主检察官,她是在联合国纽约一次会议上经全体表决被当选的。ICC目前所有调查都在非洲,但其几名领导人投诉称,非洲遭到不公平的对待。Anna Holligan在海牙报道。
She's been working as a deputy for the last seven years. Now Fatou Bensouda is preparing to take on the highest role within the International Criminal Court. Speaking at the UN Assembly of State Parties in New York, she thanked her colleagues for having faith in her abilities and promised to continue working to achieve the court's ambition of ending impunity for the most serious crimes against humanity. The new chief prosecutor has already stated she will not change the established approach of going after war criminals regardless of where they come from.
Bensouda过去七年一直担任副职,现在她要接手ICC的最高职位。在联合国纽约缔约国大会上,她感谢同事们对她能力的信任,承诺继续工作,完成法庭的任务,即结束免除最严重的反人类罪。新主检察官还表示,不管战犯来自何处,不会改变现有工作方法。
The parliament in Tunisia has elected a new president. The former opposition leader Moncef Marzouki from the secular Congress for the Republic party was appointed. It follows parliamentary elections in October after the uprising in Tunisia which ousted its former long- standing leader Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali in January this year.
