The International Court of Justice has a twofold role.
First, it settles, in accordance with international law, legal disputes submitted to it by States. Such disputes may concern, in particular, land frontiers, maritime boundaries, territorial sovereignty, the non use of force, violation of international humanitarian law, non interference in the internal affairs of States, diplomatic relations, hostage taking, the right of asylum, nationality, guardianship, rights of passage and economic rights.
Second, the ICJ gives advisory opinions on legal questions referred to it by duly authorized United Nations organs and agencies. These opinions can clarify the ways in which such organizations may lawfully function, or strengthen their authority in relation to their member States.
The ICJ consists of 15 judges, all from different countries, who are elected for a period of nine years and can be re-elected. One third of the composition of the Court is renewed every three years. The President of the Court is elected by his peers every three years; the current President is Judge Ronny Abraham from France. The hearings of the ICJ are always public. French and English are the official languages of the Court

I took this photo trough the holes of the fence. The Peace Palace houses the International Court of Justice ( judicial body of the United Nations), the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA), The Hague Academy of International Law and the Peace Palace Library. The impressive building is build in Neo-Renaissance style. After an open international competition Louis M. Cordonnier and his Dutch colleague designer mr. Van der Steur made the design for the Peace Palace. It is an international symbol for peace.

Het Vredespaleis huisvest het Internationaal Gerechtshof (rechterlijk orgaan van de Verenigde Naties), het Permanent Hof van Arbitrage (PCA), de Haagse Academie voor Internationaal Recht en de Bibliotheek van het Vredespaleis. Het indrukwekkende gebouw is gebouwd in neorenaissancestijl. Na een open internationale architectuurwedstrijd hebben Louis M. Cordonnier en zijn Nederlandse collega ontwerper dhr. Van der Steur het ontwerp voor het Vredespaleis gemaakt. Het paleis is een internationaal symbool voor vrede. Op 31 december 2021 was het paleis gesloten en heb ik de foto gemaakt door een van de openingen tussen de mooie pilaren van het hekwerk.

The Peace Palace in The Hague August,28, 2013: 100 years the icon of the International City of Peace and Justice.
Here you can read more about this Palace
All we need now is World peace!
Excerpt from www.tracesofwar.com/sights/4685/The-Hague-Resistance-and-...:
The monument is situated opposite the "Vredespaleis" (Peace Palace) and is composed on a square with on the one side two high columns and in front of these columns there are four smaller columns and a stone wall running behind all columns.
This stone wall symbolizes a "dike of obstinacy of the unyielding". The four smaller columns represent different groups of the community: neutral, Roman Catholic, Protestant and Jewish. The text on the smaller columns cannot be deciphered any more but according to some research it ought to read as follows:
The first column:
"Remove the tyranny. 1940."
The second column:
"May their souls be connected inside the band of the living."
The third column:
"Don’t let yourself be conquered by evil, but conquer evil by doing well."
The fourth column:
"Who pierces my hearth. 1945."
At the other side of the square there are a number of benches and a memorial column with the following text:
"As the city of the Royal Court and seat of the Government, The Hague had been targeted with aerial attacks already on May 10th 1940, the very first day of the treacherous offensive towards The Netherlands. The first destructions took place and the first victims were killed. Because of the war and the occupation between May 1940 and the liberation in May 1945 almost twenty thousand of our co citizens would lose their lives, as soldiers, as resistance fighters, as deported persons, as slave labourer, as prisoner in a house of correction or concentration camp, as a victim of the bombing raids and of starvation during the last winter of the war, but above all, as persecuted persons because of race or religion. Amongst those, over sixteen thousand Jewish co citizens did not survive the camps of destruction.
This monument intents to memorize all, without segregation, that have lost their lives because of the fallacy from which the National Socialism has been derived. It calls in silence to be alert for motives in the human minds that may stimulate such fallacy and may lead to such inhuman political systems. In that sense this wants to be a sign for future generations.''
‘Het Vredespaleis’ in The Hague originated from the ideals of pacifism and world peace. When the Peace Palace was finished in 1913, the palace was just as grand as the idea of world peace itself. Today the building is still used by the International Court of Justice, the Permanent Court of Arbitration, the Peace Palace Library, as well as by The Hague Academy of International Law.

Ik heb vandaag meegelopen in een demonstratie tegen de genocide door Israel op de Palestijnse bevolking in Gaza.
In totaal liepen er plusminus 150.00 in het rood geklede mensen mee. Mijn stappenteller stond op ruim 18.000.
Deze rode figuren stonden op de bank "Law Not War" voor het Vredespaleis. Ik heb het vermoeden dat deze dames/heren ook, lid zijn van de Haagse Kunstkring. Ik heb ze vaker gezien maar dan in andere kleuren.

Peace Palace, aka International Court of Justice, in The Hague, Netherlands. In Dutch, the building is called Vredespaleis and the city Den Haag.
Architectural modernism meets traditional art. People enjoy strolling and cycling out of the Palace’s gate, under heavily cloud-laden, autumnal skies. They are confident that their rights are assured by Justice on earth.
One is reminded of Aeschylus’s poem lines:
“The anvil of Justice is planted firm, and fate who makes the sword does the forging in advance.”
—Aeschylus (The Libation Bearers, I.646)
Original text, in ancient Greek:
« Δίκας δ᾽ ἐρείδεται πυθμήν·
προχαλκεύει δ᾽ Αἶσα φασγανουργός »
—Αἰσχύλος (Χοηφόροι, αʹ στάσιμον, στίχ. 646–647)
