OTTAWA — Canada's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mélanie Joly commented on the
International Court of Justice's (ICJ) decision regarding South Africa's request for provisional measures in the case filed against Israel, which accuses it of violating the
Genocide Convention, stating that Canada does not accept the premise of the case.

On Friday, in an issued statement, Joly
said, “Canada supports the ICJ’s critical role in the peaceful settlement of
disputes and its work in upholding the international rules-based order. Our
support for the ICJ does not mean that we accept the premise of the case
brought by
South Africa. It is for the ICJ to make a final decision on the
case, which it has not done today. We continue to follow the case very
closely.”
Joly expressed deep concern
for the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, highlighting that Canada urges
unhindered access to humanitarian relief. Furthermore, the statement stressed that Canada
advocates for urgent international efforts toward a sustainable ceasefire.
