The UNRWA Opinion: The ICJ, the future of the UN system and ... K-Pop Demon Hunters?
In this episode of Called to the Bar: International Law Over Drinks, host Dr Juliette McIntyre (University of South Australia) is joined by Dr Tamer Morris (University of Sydney) for a dive into the International Court of Justice’s recent advisory opinion on the Obligations of Israel in relation to the Presence and Activities of the United Nations, Other International Organizations and Third States in and in relation to the Occupied Palestinian Territory — better known as the UNRWA Opinion.
The conversation explores what the Court actually said about the legal consequences of Israel’s ongoing occupation and the corresponding duties of third states and international organizations. Juliette and Tamer unpack how the ICJ approached questions of sovereignty, occupation, and self-determination, and how this opinion builds upon—or departs from—the Court’s earlier 2004 Wall Advisory Opinion.
Along the way, they discuss:
- The Court’s reaffirmation of the illegality of prolonged occupation and annexation;
- The obligations of non-recognition and non-assistance for third states;
- The implications for UN agencies such as UNRWA;
- The future of international law, regionalism and the UN system; and
- K-Pop Demon Hunters.
As always, these are informal conversations over drinks, reflecting the personal views of the participants and not those of their institutions.
