"I welcomed this document because, since its inception on 1 July 2002, the day when the Rome Statute entered into force, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has been successfully implementing its unique global mandate of pursuing perpetrators of war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide. From the ICC’s inception, the EU has supported this Court through a variety of political, diplomatic, financial and logistical actions, whilst helping to promote the universality and integrity of the Rome Statute and contributing to the independence and effective functioning of the Court. In addition to the political and diplomatic challenges the Court is currently facing, inadequate funding continues to be the main impediment to its effectiveness. While it is constantly dealing with new cases, the opening of them is not accompanied by an increase in funding. It is very important for EU Member States to continue to provide the Court with sufficient resources to fulfil its mandate. Current forms of financial and logistical support could be further reinforced in order to ensure that the current funding gap the Court is experiencing is successfully bridged. The EU and its Member States should ensure adequate financial support for the Court’s budget."@en1
