Problems of legal qualification of the crime of genocide at the attraction of the private person

For the first time, genocide was recognized as a crime that violates the norms of international law, Resolution of the General Assembly of the UN No. 96 (I), which initiated the process of creating the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide of 1948. It was within the framework of the Convention that genocide acquired its legal content, which had previously been reduced to mass killings. This article is devoted to the identification of significant problems and conflicts that arise in the qualification of the crime of genocide to attract an individual to international criminal responsibility. As a result, it is necessary to modernize the normative consolidation of genocide with a view to facilitating the legal qualification of the international crime under consideration and to increase the effectiveness of bringing criminals to international criminal responsibility.
