This week, we had one and only @lyskulamadayil.bsky.social in my Human Rights & Global Governance class. Lys shared valuable insights into the role of special sapporteurs within the UN system, the mandate of the SP on the Right to Food, and the recent report on starvation. @hertiecfr.bsky.social

Sehr guter Kommentar von Claus Kreß. In einem Punkt stimme ichallerdings nicht zu. Die fehlende Anerkennung der vollen Souveränität Palästinas kann keine legitime Begründung sein, die Rechtsmäßigkeit des Strafbefehls gegen Netanjahu in Frage zu stellen.

Völkerrechtler. Deutschland muss Netanjahu bei Besuch festnehmen
Friedrich Merz sollte seine Einladung von Israels Premier Netanjahu überdenken, sagt der Völkerrechter Kreß. Bei einem Besuch müsste er festgenommen werden.
