World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported5m ago
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has formally denounced the use of coercive measures and threats against its members following Russia's demand for the arrest and extradition of nine officials. Among those targeted by the Russian authorities is the court's president, Tomoko Akane. The requests were directed toward the Netherlands and other unspecified nations, citing convictions issued in absentia by the Russian government.
The ICC’s statement characterizes these actions as an attempt to interfere with the court's judicial independence. The situation marks an escalation in tensions between the international tribunal and Moscow, following the ICC's previous legal actions against Russian officials.
