Resolution 955 created the ICTR to prosecute genocide and other serious violations committed in Rwanda in 1994. Rwanda voted against the resolution, objecting in part to the tribunal’s limits on the death penalty, temporal jurisdiction and seat outside Rwanda; the episode shows how affected states could contest tribunal design.
