Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies of the statement by the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court on the Israel-Palestine conflict of 10 October 2023.

The UK is a strong supporter of the International Criminal Court (ICC). We respect the independence of the Court. The UK is committed to International Humanitarian Law, and we call on our friends and partners to do the same. The UK remains committed to the Two-State Solution as the best way to bring peace and stability to the region and importantly, between Israelis and Palestinians.
