> A Universal Court with Global Support > Ratification and Implementation > Universal Ratification Campaign > URC – TURKEY URC – TURKEY The Coalition for the International Criminal Court (CICC) calls on Turkey to take the necessary steps to accede to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC). Increased ratifications of the Statute will further strengthen the global voice at the Court and result in a more robust and meaningful participation in the global struggle to establish a truly fair, effective and independent ICC.To date, 42 states in Europe and the Central Asian Republics are parties to the Rome Statute, 27 of which are European Union (EU) members. The region also includes six signatories to the Rome Statute that have yet to complete the process of ratification (Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, the Principality of Monaco, the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Uzbekistan). European states have been frontrunners in the establishment of the ICC and their continuing support is critical to ensuring that the ICC remains a fair and effective Court. As a new state party, Turkey would further encourage the region's commitment to the new system of international justice. The Coalition therefore appeals to Turkey to ratify the Rome Statute and to fully support this first permanent, independent court capable of investigating and bringing to justice perpetrators of the most serious violations of international law, namely war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide. Take action now! Write a letter to the President and Prime Minister of Turkey to encourage them to accede to the Rome Statute of the ICC. You might like to use the letter below as a guide.
