She has said she has sent her letter last Thursday and that her resignation will take effect on 18 September. Carla Del Ponte has said she is convinced she has enough evidence to condemn Bachar al-Assad for war crimes.
But because of Russia's veto of the UN Security Council for the establishment of an international court, there will be no charges, nor will the Special Court for the time being. This situation is “frist”, “is a tragedy”, the prosecutor has indicated.
