Despite their fundamental importance in the effective prosecution of international crimes, inter-state judicial cooperation regimes have long been overlooked. However, two new initiatives have recently emerged. The first is the International Law Commission’s Draft Articles on Crimes Against Humanity (Draft Articles), which aims to create a global convention on prevention, punishment and inter-State cooperation with respect to crimes against humanity. The second initiative, the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty for core crimes (MLA Treaty), is wider in scope. It encompasses genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity and seeks the conclusion of a multilateral cooperation treaty to enable the effective provision of mutual legal assistance and extradition of suspects in relation to these crimes. The aim of this article is to critically assess the merits and shortcomings of these two initiatives in the effort to enhance inter-state cooperation in the prosecution of international crimes and their abilities to remedy current problems.

然后两者同时出现：关于核心犯罪的国家间合作、国际刑事法院和核心国家集团

尽管国家间司法合作制度在有效起诉国际犯罪方面具有根本重要性，但长期以来一直被忽视。然而，最近出现了两项新举措。第一个是国际法委员会关于危害人类罪的条款草案（条款草案），旨在就危害人类罪的预防、惩罚和国家间合作制定一项全球公约。第二项举措，核心犯罪司法互助条约（MLA 条约），范围更广。它包括灭绝种族罪、战争罪和危害人类罪，并寻求缔结一项多边合作条约，以便有效提供司法协助和引渡与这些罪行有关的嫌疑人。
