Ambassador Tan was involved in several high-profile cases during his tenure, including the indictment of former Kosovo President Hashim Thaçi. He detailed his decision to proceed with Thaçi's indictment based on strong evidence, which led to Thaçi's resignation and subsequent prosecution for war crimes. This case underscored the U.S.'s commitment to holding powerful figures accountable, highlighting the unique position of Ambassador Tan's office, which is not equivalent to any other nation's foreign ministry.

Ambassador Tan also discussed his efforts in prosecuting war criminals from the Bosnian civil war and other regions, emphasizing the extensive accountability measures that have been applied in areas with a history of conflict like the Balkans. His work led to impactful justice initiatives, such as the public visa sanction against Shavendra Silva, a Sri Lankan military leader implicated in war crimes, which was accomplished within the first two weeks of Tan’s office.

Moreover, Tan touched on his role in making a historic determination against the Chinese Communist Party for committing mass atrocities against the Uighurs and other minorities in Xinjiang, which was a groundbreaking move considering the global power of China.

The conversation highlighted the complexities of navigating international law and diplomacy, especially within the U.S. government's and international organizations' bureaucratic structures. Ambassador Tan’s insights revealed the challenges and triumphs of pursuing global justice and the critical role of diplomatic efforts in addressing some of the world's most severe human rights violations.
