For the first time, Germany has lost a campaign for a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council👇
The world cares about int’al law, & this is a lesson for states: whether it’s Venezuela, Gaza, Iran, or Lebanon, promoting the consistent application of int’al law is good politics.
Helmut Philipp Aust has joined MPIL as Director.
He now co-leads the Institute with Anne Peters and Armin von Bogdandy; his work spans state responsibility, cities in international law, and co-operation in antagonistic times.

On the State Department Memorandum “Operation Epic Fury and International Law”
By Brian Finucane (@bcfinucane.bsky.social), former State Dept attorney in the Office of the Legal Adviser
#IranWar
Opening of @mpil.de conference “International Law and Peace in Ukraine”, with offical positions from Dr Wiebke Rückert
(🇩🇪German Federal Foreign Office) and Dr Anton Korynevych (🇺🇦Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine). Ukraine core message: No peace without justice and no compromise on justice.
Germany does not get a non-permanent seat in the UN security council, losing against Austria and Portugal.
That’s actually pretty embarrassing for German diplomacy (even if you think the SC is useless.)
