Q - Does France support the Kurdish request to establish an ad hoc international tribunal based in northeastern Syria to prosecute crimes committed by the Islamic State group?

A - The creation of such an ad hoc international tribunal is a complex operation. Its implementation would give rise to legal and practical difficulties.

France favors the prosecution of Daesh fighters in the place they committed their crimes. It is a matter of justice as well as security.
