| Description | Within the international conference in Kampala in 2010 where the extension of jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court for the crime of aggression was negotiated, reaching a consensus constituted a substantial challenge. The accepted definition expresses that a precondition for a crime of aggression is the existence of an act of aggression that – by its character, gravity and scale – constitutes a manifest violation of the UN Charter. This paper deals with the possibilities of interpretation of the general term ‘manifest violation’, as its reading is crucial in order to identify the extent to which the jurisdiction of the Court with regard to the crime of aggression will be able to be used in the real future. |
