Senate nod needed to rejoin ICC, says Senator De la Rosa
https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1866717/senate-nod-needed-to-rejoin-icc-says-senator-de-la-rosaMANILA, Philippines — The Philippine government would need to redo the process of returning to the fold of the International Criminal Court (ICC), which would require the concurrence of two-thirds of the membership of the Senate, Sen. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa said on Monday.
Dela Rosa, one of the respondents of the cases lodged with the ICC, said President Marcos cannot unilaterally rejoin the ICC without Senate ratification, which his predecessor, then President Rodrigo Duterte, did to withdraw in 2018.
