Less than 30 hours later, Namibia reminds Germany of its history and appeals to the German Government to “reconsider its untimely decision to intervene as a third-party”. Massive political fallout. Ultimately, it will be the ICJ that will decide whether Germany was right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sudan Events \u2013 Sumaya Sayed\u00a0 Namibia chastises Germany for declaring that it will intervene on Israel\u2019s behalf in the case concerning Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide in the Gaza Strip before the ICJ.
