Russian Federation	2023	20	.pdf	application/pdf	10090	462	28	Further, Ukraine approached the ICJ for provisional measures and the ICJ took cognisance of the happenings in Ukraine and rendered provisional measures on 16th March 2022.4 In this article, the author provides a detailed analysis of the provisional measures, thereby highlighting the approach of the ICJ in the overall scheme of provisional measures vis-à-vis the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (Genocide Convention). The NATO bombings forced Yugoslavia to approach the ICJ in a series of proceedings, wherein the ICJ had the opportunity to interpret the Genocide Convention in the context of provisional measures vis-à-vis the legality of the use of force.14 The ICJ, in these proceedings, at the provisional measures stage, provided a narrow interpretation of the Genocide Convention by delving into the substantive contents of the Genocide Convention like ‘intention’ under Article II of the Genocide Convention.15 As previously discussed, the threshold for ‘specific intent’ is high in terms of the crime of Genocide, which at the provisional measure stage should not have been deliberated by the ICJ.	cache/tahrj-7781.pdf	txt/tahrj-7781.txt
