Myanmar).<\/p><p>The ICJ\u2019s Judgment, which straightforwardly rejects all objections to the jurisdiction of the Court and admissibility of the claim, clears the way for substantive hearings on the atrocities directed against the Rohingya during military operations in 2016 and 2017.<\/p><p>The hearing on those objections need not have proceeded. On 10 February 2022, the National Unity Government, as the proper representative of Myanmar in the case, formally communicated to the ICJ that it accepted the Court\u2019s jurisdiction and withdrew all preliminary objections.<\/p><p>Accountability and reparations for the Rohingya must remain the driving imperative. The National Unity Government will continue to extend its full cooperation to the ICJ in the case.<\/p><p>Furthermore, the National Unity Government has submitted an Article 12(3) Declaration to the International Criminal Court (ICC), accepting the ICC\u2019s jurisdiction with respect to international crimes, including genocide, committed in Myanmar since 2002.<\/p><p>The National Unity Government will also continue to share evidence with the UN\u2019s Independent Investigative Mechanism for Myanmar (IIMM) and with national prosecution services to advance accountability efforts in other jurisdictions.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a5b9ec4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\"
