Then the governance and judiciary of "where they are from" needs to be changed. They should stop hiding behind supposed legalism but clearly do so because they have that perceived privilege you commonly see from the imperial cores.

It is very telling their projection of racist supremacy including the presumption of universalism of their worldviews and localities' laws (noted their British links to BBC and met police), and they are choosing to do so in the context of ethnic cleansing, genocide and war crimes.

It is not an "exaggeration"; definitions in spoiler (content warning).

Definitions of Crimes of Sexual Violence in the ICC (as contained in the Elements of Crimes Annex and the Rome Statute), Rape:

  • The perpetrator invaded the body of a person by conduct resulting in penetration, however slight, of any part of the body of the victim or of the perpetrator with a sexual organ, or of the anal or genital opening of the victim with any object or any other part of the body.
  • The invasion was committed by force, or by threat of force or coercion, such as that caused by fear of violence, duress, detention, psychological oppression or abuse of power, against such person or another person, or by taking advantage of a coercive environment, or the invasion was committed against a person incapable of giving genuine consent.
  • [The concept of "invasion" is intended to be broad enough to be gender-neutral.] [It is understood that a person may be incapable of giving genuine consent if affected by natural, induced or age-related incapacity. This footnote also applies to the corresponding elements of article 7(1)(g) - 3, 5 and 6.]
