embargo against Côte d’Ivoire, with a view to strengthening the effectiveness of the
State security bodies throughout the national territory;

The Independent Expert reiterates his recommendation that the
International Criminal Court should strengthen the impartiality and fairness of
international justice by issuing arrest warrants for all perpetrators of genocide,

ethnic or religious origin. The International Criminal Court is also called upon to
show special vigilance for possible prosecution in response to political discourses and
media campaigns that incite national, ethnic or religious hatred;
(d)
The Independent Expert reiterates his recommendation that the Human
Rights Council should publish the report of the International Commission of Inquiry
