===The United Nations Charter===
The relevant provisions of the [[Charter of the United Nations]] mentioned in the [[Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court|RSICC]] article 5.2 were framed to include the Nuremberg Principles. The specific principle is ''[[Nuremberg Principles#Principle VI|Principle VI]].a'' "[[Crimes against peace]]", which was based on the provisions of the [[London Charter of the International Military Tribunal]] that was issued in 1945 and formed the basis for the post [[World War II]] war crime trials. The Charter's provisions based on the Nuremberg Principle VI.a are:
