International pressure drove the ICJ to condemn Myanmar's Rohingya campaign. [fact]

In addition to Malala, at least seven other Nobel Peace Prize laureates have publicly called for the designation of the anti-Muslim Rohingya campaign to be officially labeled as a “genocide,” which would trigger certain legal protections under international law and which eventually led to the International Court of Justice at The Hague condemning Myanmar’s government in a January 2020 official ICJ court ruling.

XREF: Connects to international law and genocide designation debates, as well as the legal weight of Nobel Peace Prize laureates' political advocacy.

XREF: Connects to the broader genocidal campaigns book chapter and international law discussions familiar from other readings.
