#Myanmar on Aung San Suu Kyi at @CIJ_ICJ for #Gambia #genocide case: use of ‘displaced persons’ not #Rohingya ; ref to #UN charter unclear; strange to have her travel for initial #provisionalmeasures hearings, not legally necessary, only political; not silence but complicity now?

The Unruly Notion of Abuse of Rights, by Jan Paulsson
