Question 28

Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about the President & Vice President of the International Court of Justice?

  1. Term in office is 3 years.
  2. They are both nominated by the United Nations General Assembly and the Security Council.
  3. The Vice-President takes charge in the absence of the President.
  4. The President and Vice-President may be re-elected.
Answer

They are both nominated by the United Nations General Assembly and the Security Council.

Reason — The United Nations General Assembly and the Security Council only elect the 15 judges of International Court of Justice. However, the President and the Vice-President are elected internally by the 15 Court judges themselves.
