Citizen Resistance: Swiss Lawyers Take Their Own Foreign Minister to the ICC Over Alleged Gaza War Crimes

A striking example of creative resistance comes from Switzerland, where around twenty Swiss lawyers have taken the extraordinary step of turning international law against their own foreign minister, Ignazio Cassis, by submitting a “communication” to the International Criminal Court (ICC). (A “communication” to the ICC is not a formal indictment.) The lawyers accuse Cassis of complicity with Israel in war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide in Gaza. They argue that Cassis, as Switzerland’s foreign minister, bears responsibility for Swiss policies that violate the Geneva Conventions and fail to uphold International Humanitarian Law (IHL). This is the first time a Swiss minister has been named in a case submitted to the ICC in The Hague.
