Episode Details

The United Nations tribunals for Yugoslavia and Rwanda have concluded their work, marking the end of a significant journey for international justice. The final case involved Félicien Kabuga, accused of financing the Rwandan genocide, who passed away before his trial. Kabugas death, due to dementia and lack of a country willing to take him, highlights challenges in international justice. Survivors of the Rwandan genocide express disappointment, with Agnes Mukamurenzi calling for Kabuga to have faced full justice. The International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals, handling final cases, is set to close in June, leaving uncertainties about its remaining duties. The tribunals, established in the nineties, convicted over one hundred fifty people, paving the way for the International Criminal Court. However, the ICC faces its own challenges, with some powerful nations not members and others refusing to cooperate, leaving the future of international accountability complex.
