What the sources establish
UN General Assembly carries the official instrument or communique. UN News records the same dated act independently.
Established: UNGA 69/188 was adopted on 18 December 2014.
Not established: A unique ICC docket opened that day, or a unique camp headcount.
He did not write the text.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies UNGA 69/188 takes note of the COI and encourages Council action including ICC referral, not a later speech about UNGA 69/188 takes note of the COI and encourages Council action including ICC referral.
Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to The Assembly adopted. He did not write the text. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
