Hans-Peter Kaul

Hans-Peter Kaul, born in 1943, studied law after serving in the army for four years. Her worked in the Foreign Service, e. g. as a consul to Norway, as a spokesman of the German embassy in Israel and as the director of the Department of International Law in Berlin.  Kaul campaigned decisively for the creation of an International Criminal Court where he was sworn in as a judge in March 2003.
