No British judge in ICJ for 1st time in its 71-year history
The UK won't have a judge on the International Court of Justice for the first time in the court's 71-year history. Britain withdrew its candidate Christopher Greenwood before the 12th voting round, paving way for India's Justice Dalveer Bhandari to fill the last vacancy. Notably, the ICJ is composed of 15 judges, with five judges being elected every nine years.
