"Mongolia understandably must be expedient." Understandably, perhaps, professor ... but expedience in the service of tyranny? What SHOULD happen, is the ICC should indict both Khurelsukh Ukhnaa and Jacob Zuma and place them on a red list....that way some future government in their respective countries (or any othe ICC signatory) could do the right thing and hold them to account for subversion of judicial process and extradite them to the Hague!?

Yes, it should. But the ICC is too weak and too slow to do such things.

Exactly! The proposed International Anti-Corruption Court has a number of new high-level backers and will soon have a new treaty ready to go.
