The only exception being Art. 1(1), which stipulates that the suppression of acts of aggression is one of the purposes of the United Nations. It could be inferred from this that being a purpose of the entire UN, determinations of aggression are not limited to the Security Council.

Option 2 is based on previous discussions regarding an additional option which would constitute a merely procedural "go-ahead" from the Security Council without a substantive determination that an act of aggression has occurred, but with an explicit authorization for the Court to investigate in respect of the crime of aggression. In case of a Security Council referral under article 13 (b) of the Statute, such an authorization could be contained in the resolution referring the situation to the Prosecutor.

Notes

The irony of it all is that those supporting Security Council involvement also criticized the politicization of the Court due to the prosecutor s proprio motu powers. However, Security Council involvement in the process, by some even advanced as preventing possible politicization, would more likely increase politicization due to the influence of a political body.

Even more, with such open language it might even be sufficient to have presidential statements or formal letters by the Security Council President on behalf of the Council. This would be more low-key and maybe easier to achieve than a resolution. There would be no problems with the speci ficity of the veto as such statements or letters are always adopted by consensus, however, consensus is a high threshold in itself and sometimes more difficult to achieve than 'only' nine votes without a negative vote from the P5, cf Simma/Brunner/Kaul (Article 27), supra note 17, at MN 142-148

E.g. the ball would still be put in the Security Council's court; however, this modified 'red light' option is part and parcel of a 'green light' option really. Whereas the Belgian proposal of 2008 would have the consequence of direct ICC investigation if the Security Council fails to come to a decision, this proposal provides for another safeguard if the Security Council is blocked or inactive

Whether the composition of the Security Council really is representative of UN membership may of course be seriously questioned (see e.g. Blokker (Crime of Aggression), supra note 6, at 888), but as a decision-making organ of the UN, at least in theory it represents the organization and all of its members.

Another argument relates to the fact that the ICC (or ASP) as an independent organization would have the power to give a certain power to the Security Council for ICC purposes. Were it to transfer a power for UN purposes this would be a different story and come close to 're-writing the Charter'.

For the latter point, see, at 286
