Have the Tánaiste and his EU Foreign Minister colleagues given consideration to referring Prince Mohammed bin Salman al Saud of Saudi Arabia to the International Criminal Court in The Hague given the appalling murder of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi and repeated serious crimes committed by the Saudi rulers in Yemen? I remember years ago, when both the Tánaiste and I were in opposition, how we supported the establishment of the International Criminal Court. Is there not a significant case, as the President of Turkey has clearly shown, that the key perpetrators of this premeditated and vicious murder must be brought to justice? Will the Tánaiste take an initiative in that regard?
