US introduces sanctions on ICC leaders
The United States has announced new sanctions against the International Criminal Court's president and a senior lawyer, targeting their efforts to prosecute officials without the consent of their governments. The sanctions are part of a broader campaign by the Trump administration to dismantle the ICC, which includes asset freezes and travel bans on multiple officials. The US government opposes the court’s investigations into US personnel and Israeli officials, viewing the ICC as politicized and a threat to national sovereignty, despite the court's statements supporting its staff and legal authority.
