Al-Haq Organization (in Ramallah) has welcomed the response of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to Amicus Curiae Briefs regarding the situation in the State of Palestine which was issued on April 30, 2020. The Organization has also welcomed the Prosecutor’s strong analysis on the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and commended the Prosecutor for recognizing that sovereignty over the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip resides primarily in the Palestinian people, under occupation. The Organization retained some reservations with the submission, in particular, the refusal of the Prosecutor to reconsider her earlier position on excluding the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) from the jurisdiction of the court.
