A decade after the Rome Statute came into force, the author looks back at the issue on whether the ICC, had pledged itself towards a discriminatory criminal justice targeting Africans? Analyzing (i) the way the ICC had been solicited during its first decade of action and (ii) the inaction of the African tribunals, the author concludes that when picking court cases the idea that the “Court is against Africans” is unconvincing. However, he points out that the aforementioned two factors nevertheless do not explain, the fact that when selecting cases only Africans are targeted since even in African context we can observe the presence of non-African actors involved in armed conflicts that tear Africa apart and that subsequently there is no justification in those situations that prosecutions can only target Africans'. With regard to the relationships between the ICC and the Africans victims, the author demonstrates that so far, the answers given by the ICC to meet the need of criminal justice of these victims only partially support the notion that the ICC is “mindful of the suffering of the African victims”.
