Abstract
The article examines the theoretical contradictions between the model of justice presented in the International Criminal Court in its current form and the models of justice of the countries of the East, including the countries of Africa. The evolution of relations between African countries and the African Union on the one hand, and the International Criminal Court (ICC), on the other, is traced. An overall assessment of the investigations conducted by the ICC Prosecutor's Office on a number of situations in the countries of the African continent and the reaction of both individual countries and the African Union is given. The author analyzes the decision on the collective withdrawal of African countries from among the participants in the ICC Statute and the reasons for the failure of its implementation in October 2016. Author suggests the political and legal reasons that have compelled the Governments of the Republic of South Africa and The Gambia to withdraw their statements of withdrawal from the International Criminal Court. The decision of the ICC on the opening of the investigation of the situation in Burundi is analyzed. Author concludes that this decision is not binding Burundi in its cooperation with ICC, because the official announcement of the abovementioned decision was announced after the withdrawal took a legal effect.
