Abstract:
A review conference of the Rome Statute took place in 2010 in Kampala, Uganda, to consider amendments to the treaty that created the International Criminal Court. This article presents the aims and achievements of the review conference. The author highlights the resolution of debated issues by consensus that led to the adoption of amendments on the crime of aggression and on war crimes. He also argues that the system of taking pledges from States is a promising method to secure cooperation from States and concludes that the review conference was successful in addressing many concerns of the international community.
