17. As regards the other two questions posed by the Republic of Cote d'ivoire, the
Court notes that they do not relate to any of the operative provisions of the Judgment
of which interpretation is requested.
18. In view of the foregoing, the Court holds in conclusion that none of the three
questions posed by the Republic of Cote d'ivoire is intended to clarify the meaning or
scope of any point in the operative provisions of the afore-mentioned Judgment
delivered by the Court on 18 November 2016.
19. The Court accordingly finds that,
although the instant Application for
interpretation was filed within the 12-month time limit prescribed in the Rules, it does
not meet the other admissibility conditions set forth in Rules 66 (1) and (2) of the
Rules and must therefore be declared inadmissible.
v. COSTS
20. In terms of Rule 30 of the Rules, "unless otherwise decided by the Court, each party
shall bear its own costs".
21. Taking into account the circumstances of this matter the Court decides that each
party should bear its own costs
22. For these reasons,
The Court,
Unanimously:
i) Declares that it has jurisdiction to hear the present Application.
ii) Declares that the Application is inadmissible.
iii) Rules that each Party shall bear its own Costs.
