Emergency Conference of States: July 2025 - Bogotá, Colombia
On July 16, 2025, 30 countries convened in Bogotá, Colombia, under the banner of The Hague Group to activate a coordinated legal response to the decades of Israel's impunity from prosecution under international law, which has culminated in the genocide in Gaza. The two-day conference and its Joint Statement on the Conclusion of the Emergency Conference on Palestine marked a defining moment in international legal history—the first time since the establishment of Israel that a multi-state alliance, including Belize, Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras, Malaysia, Namibia, Senegal, and South Africa, committed to enforcing international law without political bias or delay. Unsurprisingly, no leading Western state endorsed the statement. However, Bogotá will be remembered as a turning point and historic moment as other states take the lead in restoring dignity of life to the world order and enforcing the inalienable tenets of international humanitarian law. |
