China sets up international body in Hong Kong to rival World Court
Briefly

Hong Kong has established a new international mediation organization, IOMed, to serve as a rival to the International Court of Justice. The initiative, launched by the Chinese government, aims to enhance Hong Kong's status as a global mediation hub amid ongoing concerns about its international reputation. The organization will address various disputes, including those between nations or between private entities. This move signifies a strategic effort by Beijing to position Hong Kong as a key player in international conflict resolution and governance.
The Convention on the Establishment of the International Organisation for Mediation (IOMed) marks a significant step in global governance, providing a dedicated platform for resolving international disputes amicably.
Beijing aims for IOMed to establish Hong Kong as a premier global mediation hub, countering the decline in the city's international status and enhancing its recognition on the world stage.
