Abstract

This article articulates the possible legal paths open to international criminal
law in order to activate the prosecution of macro-crimes committed during the
Third Artsakh War. Neither the Republic of Armenia nor Republic of Azerbaijan nor
the Republic of Artsakh is not a member of the Rome Statute of the International
Criminal Court (ICC). This makes it difficult to initiate the prosecution of war crimes
on an international level. The following article highlights the difficulties and
alternatives in overcoming the legal obstacles for activating international criminal
prosecution, by waging and comparing the possible instruments. The legal
comparison and the historical overview allow considering three different levels for
the prosecution of international crimes committed during the Third Artsakh War,
where national prosecution based on universal jurisdiction seems to be the most
efficient tool
