Second Assignment Question
Due to budget pressures in the United States, an increasing numbers of voters and members of Congress have expressed the view that the country should cut back on its funding of the United Nations. The US funds about $6.5 billion of the UN's regular annual budget - that amounts to 22% of the UN budget.
The International Court of Justice is a small part of the UN budget, but there is a proposal in Congress to eliminate US funding for the ICJ.
What would you say to educate the American public and Congress about why the reasons why the ICJ should continue to be funded by the US?
(Do not confuse the ICJ and the ICC in your answers. The International Criminal Court does not arbitrate disputes - it renders judgments against individual people prosecuted for alleged war crimes and human rights abuses. The ICC is not part of the UN structure.)
