During a United Nations Security Council meeting in New York on 25 November 2025, the UK’s Legal Adviser, Colin McIntyre, reiterated support for the International Criminal Court (ICC). He praised progress in Libya, citing the Office of the Prosecutor’s report on four investigative tracks and the anticipated surrender of Mr Khaled El Hishri after his arrest in Germany. McIntyre welcomed improved cooperation from Libyan authorities and urged them to continue working with the ICC to surrender individuals subject to warrants, emphasizing the need for accountability to bring stability to Libya. He called on all states to respect the ICC’s mandate under Resolution 1970 and to support its independence.
