Headline Security Council Meets to Elect Five Members of International Court of Justice

Caption Description Security Council holds election of five members of International Court of Justice (ICJ).

A Conference Officer walks out with the box of votes together with two witnesses to count and verify the votes during the election that simultaneously took place in the General Assembly Hall.

The Security Council elected the following judges at International Court of Justice: Bogdan-Lucian Aurescu (Romania) Hilary Charlesworth (Australia) Sarah Hull Cleveland (US) Juan Manuel Gómez Robledo Verduzco (Mexico) Dire Tladi (South Africa).

International Court of Justice judges are elected through parallel procedures at the General Assembly and the Security Council, independently of one another. To be elected, a candidate must obtain an absolute majority of votes both in the General Assembly and in the Security Council. In the Security Council, eight votes out of fifteen constitute an absolute majority. In the General Assembly 97 votes out of 193 constitute an absolute majority.
