International Claims Commission

The International Claims Commission is a legal body that resolves disputes involving claims for compensation between nations or individuals and foreign governments. It typically addresses issues arising from war, expropriation, or violations of treaties. The commission examines evidence, hears arguments, and makes determinations on whether compensation is owed. It aims to provide a fair and impartial resolution to claims, helping restore relations between states and ensuring that individuals or businesses receive justice for losses incurred due to governmental actions. The process emphasizes diplomacy and international law to find equitable solutions.
