<p>The Kampala amendments are activated on 17 July 2018. Thereafter, the jurisdiction
of the International Criminal Court over the crime of aggression only applies, in

States Parties that have ratified or accepted the amendments to the Rome Statute on
the crime of aggression. The UK has no plans to ratify these amendments, as we believe
that the UN Security Council should be the body responsible for determining when an
act of aggression has occurred.</p>
