US hits International Criminal Court with sweeping sanctions as part of drive to dismantle tribunal
Americas3 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported3m ago
The United States government has imposed sweeping new sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) as part of an ongoing campaign by the Trump administration to dismantle the tribunal. This escalation follows previous U.S. penalties that targeted more than a dozen of the court's judges and prosecutors.
The actions are driven by the tribunal's investigations into the United States and its allies, including Israel. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the administration have vowed to dismantle the ICC "brick by brick" unless significant changes are made to its operations and investigative scope regarding U.S. and allied personnel.
