Curtis Partner John Balouziyeh Publishes Article on the Establishment of a Korean War Crimes Tribunal

Curtis partner John Balouziyeh published an article entitled “Promoting International Criminal Justice in Korea: A Korean War Crimes Tribunal?” in the Denver Journal of International Law and Policy. The article analyzes three forms of international criminal justice that can serve the Korean Peninsula in the event of a deployment of chemical weapons or other prohibited weapons of war on the Korean Peninsula: (1) a referral of international crimes to the International Criminal Court; (2) prosecution by domestic Korean courts; and (3) the establishment of a hybrid tribunal, the “Korean War Crimes Tribunal.” The article argues that the first two options are marked by practical and jurisdictional deficiencies, whereas the third option—the creation of the Korean War Crimes Tribunal—offers advantages that would fill gaps in international justice.
