On April 7, 2023, the world lost Ben Ferencz, an extraordinary man and a trailblazer in the field of international criminal law. Ben's role as a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Tribunal after the Second World War marked the beginning of a long career dedicated to promoting the international rule of law. The work of the Permanent Mission of Liechtenstein to the UN was greatly enriched by our longstanding friendship with Ben. As we mourn our role model, mentor, partner and friend, we will honor his legacy by heeding his call to “never give up” in the fight for a more just and peaceful world by strengthening the international rule of law. Rest in peace, Ben - thank you for being our friend and our inspiration. We invite others to join us in sharing their memories and reflections on Ben's exceptional life and work.

With the passing of Ben Ferencz, we have lost a champion of justice and accountability for the commission of atrocity crimes. Ben was an inspiration for countless prosecutors and judges who followed his storied career as a Nuremberg Trials prosecutor. It was a huge privilege to have had Ben as a friend and role model. I send my warmest condolences to his family.
