Summary
Josip Pečarić: Criminal Court in The Hague
Today there is no longer any doubt: The Hague Tribunal, the so-called ICTY, established by the decision of the United Nations to try on their behalf for war crimes committed in the period from 1990 to 1995 in the territory of the former Yugoslavia, will be a challenging topic in Croatian political life and Croatian political history for a long time, which will be approached by some rationally, with rigorous science, on the basis of international law, and by others emotionally, based on own experiences and convictions. But, whatever that approach is, today it is increasingly likely, the conclusion will be the same in both the first and second cases: that this court, politically manipulated from secret but recognizable international circles, has become (and will forever remain) a concept, an incarnation, a textbook example of anti-justice and an irreparable shame for both the United Nations that founded it and the European Union, which recognizes and accepts it simply by making its decisions respecting its "rule of law", even though its officials must also be clear that the processes in front of him is far from legal regularity not only with regard to classical Roman law but also to the reformed Anglo-Saxon variant of law and judicial practice.
