An international coalition of lawyers has launched a campaign to defend the International Criminal Court. The initiative was announced in connection with The Second International Legal Conference in Istanbul on July 15, 2026.
The campaign was launched in response to a US threat to "dismantle" the ICC. The timing of the initiative, coinciding with the Istanbul legal conference, suggests the coalition is mobilizing legal expertise to counter pressure against the international institution.
The involvement of an international coalition of lawyers indicates broad professional engagement across multiple jurisdictions to support the court's continued operation and independence. The specifics of the campaign's proposed actions and the full roster of participating organizations remain unclear from available information.
