The correct answer is option 3, the Philippines. Recently, the Philippines formally notified its intention to withdraw from the International Criminal Court (ICC). The ICC is an international tribunal that deals with cases of genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and aggression. It is a court of last resort that acts when national legal systems are unable or unwilling to do so. The Philippines` decision to withdraw from the ICC is significant because it will make the country one of only a few that are not part of the court. It is important to note that this decision does not immediately take effect, as there is a one-year notice period required under the ICC statute. During this time, the court will still have jurisdiction over any crimes committed in the Philippines. The decision to leave the ICC has been met with criticism from human rights organizations, who argue that it will undermine the country`s commitment to accountability and justice.
