BERLIN — On Friday, the German government announced that it has decided to join as a third party to support Israel's position in the pending case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ). It added, we reject the accusations of genocide against Israel at the ICJ, as they are baseless, Al-Jazeera reported.
Meanwhile, the government spokesman Steffen Hebestreit said in a statement that Israel was ‘defending itself,’ in response to October 7. He said Germany would intervene as a third party before the ICJ.
Meanwhile, media sources added that if this ‘rare move’ is accepted by the court, it would allow Germany to issue its own arguments against South Africa’s case, but nothing has been confirmed yet on whether Germany’s arguments will be submitted in writing or orally.
Meanwhile, a report added that is not clear whether the move would delay the ICJ’s plan to issue a decision. It is important to note that ICJ has been historically reluctant to accept third-party intervention applications.
