To be a lawyer who is suggesting sending non-Salvadorans to CECOT at a time when the torture occurring there is so well-documented you have to be willfully blind not to know about is to be a lawyer suggesting the United States can send people to torture, and that is to suggest breaking the law.

8/ A public service reminder:

This entire exercise is an absurd, imaginary world for legal experts.

That's because the truth is:

It's not an armed conflict.
The laws of war thus don't apply.

The more restrictive rules of human rights apply.
It's extrajudicial killing under that law.

Coercive measures are affecting the lives, security, and physical safety of the Court officials. States parties should protect the staff. The Court will not accept intimidation and pressure. It will continue to carry out its mandate and uphold the values of the Statute. #ASP24
