Well.
Africa and the AU (- regardless of the reticence of the white man's client states of Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, Uganda, ... - ) can be more forceful than that ..
For instance, what stance did the USA take when in the wake of the atrocities committed in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere, some among the EU countries moved to bring up indictments against Bush, Blair, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, .. at the ICC?

It is a kind of presidents union and they defend and protect each other because many of them are also criminal. They never tell the thruth to each other.
