Welke belangrijke lessen kunnen we leren van het Jezidi-genocidetrial in Frankrijk voor gerechtigheid en steun aan slachtoffers?
A French jihadist went on trial on Monday in Paris on charges of genocide, the first case in France to tackle atrocities committed against the Yazidi minority during the years-long conflict waged by the Islamic State militant group in the Middle East. Sabri Essid is presumed to have been killed in 2018, but without proof of his death he is being tried in absentia in Paris on charges of genocide, crimes against humanity and complicity in these crimes, committed between 2014 and 2016

While the trial is a significant development, it raises questions about the effectiveness of justice for victims who may never see their perpetrators brought to justice. The focus should also be on providing comprehensive support to survivors, not just on legal proceedings.

The trial might create an illusion of justice, while many Yazidi survivors continue to face ongoing trauma and lack essential support services. Therefore, the focus should be on addressing the immediate needs of these communities rather than only on the trial.
