⚖️ Together with my colleague, Minister of Justice @AnneliesVl, I met with @IntlCrimCourt President Tomoko Akane in Brussels today to reaffirm Belgium’s unwavering support for the International Criminal Court.
At a time when its independence and ability to operate are under pressure, our support must go beyond words. Belgium will continue working with the other Court’s partners to secure concrete measures that protect its independence, its staff and its ability to deliver justice. The ICC must be able to fulfil its mandate without intimidation or interference.

(EN/FR/NL) ⚖️🇺🇳 We all know it: the International Criminal Court has had a challenging year, marked by unprecedented obstacles. My presence at #ASP24 is therefore no coincidence: Belgium’s support to the #ICC remains strong, consistent and unequivocal.

Nous le savons tous : la Cour internationale pénale a connu une année mouvementée, jalonnée de défis sans précédent. Ma présence à la #ASP24 n’est donc pas anodine : le soutien de la Belgique à la #CPI reste ferme, constant et sans ambiguïté.

We weten het allemaal: het Internationaal Strafhof heeft een bewogen jaar achter de rug, vol ongekende uitdagingen. Mijn aanwezigheid op de #ASP24 is dan ook geen toeval: de steun van België aan het #ICC blijft sterk, constant en ondubbelzinnig.

As recent withdrawals from the Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence Against Women and Domestic Violence (“Istanbul Convention”) have shown, women’s rights must relentlessly be defended and promoted. The digital world makes no exception.

Pleasure to host Director-General Arias and representatives of @OPCW and member states in Brussels today. Belgium continues to value the important work of the OPCW in strengthening international security and disarmament.
In line with Belgium's steadfast commitment to defend multilateralism, we were honoured to promote the @OPCW , in the presence of Belgium's Minister of Defence @FranckenTheo and DG Fernando Arias at a lunch with Brussels-based Ambassadors.
Today it is the International Day Against the Death Penalty. On this day, we reaffirm Belgium's commitment to eradicate this practice worldwide. The death penalty has no deterrent effect.
#NoDeathPenalty #AbolitionNow
Today it is the International Day of Peace.
It is more important than ever to shed light on this historical day. Let's not forget the past and honour our duty to speak up against violence, hate, discrimination and inequality.

🧑⚖️Today is International Criminal Justice Day, marking the @IntlCrimCourt's founding.
🇧🇪 is particularly committed to justice, accountability & victims’ rights.
