Abstract: 

On November 30, 2023, the Office of the Prosecutor at the Int’l Criminal Court (ICC) issued a report on the situation in Colombia (https://www.icc-cpi.int/sites/default/files/2023-11/2023-11-30-otp-report-colombia-eng.pdf). This report determined that potential cases on alleged crimes against humanity and war crimes during the six-decade Colombian civil war are likely inadmissible to the ICC, due to genuine proceedings by the Colombian government aimed at handling all the cases.
