They have requested an investigation into European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen for complicity in war crimes and genocide against Palestinian civilians in the occupied Palestinian territories, including the Gaza Strip.
The proponents of the investigation argue that Ursula von der Leyen is responsible for aiding and abetting the commission of these crimes and violations of international humanitarian law.
In a press release, the group stated that the memorandum “documents in detail the fact that Mrs. Ursula von der Leyen personally is criminally responsible and liable for punishment for some of the war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide having been committed (and still being committed) by the Israeli armed forces.”
“Mrs. von der Leyen enjoys no functional immunity before the ICC by virtue of Article 27 of the Rome Statute,” according to the statement.
