US sanctions aimed at ICC chief
The International Criminal Court criticized the new American sanctions targeting high-ranking officials, including its Japanese President, Tomoko Aki, describing them as a blatant attack on the court's independence. The U.S. government announced that it had froze assets of the officials, while the court emphasized that threatening judicial representatives endangers the international legal system, and that it will continue to operate independently and impartially. The U.S. Secretary of State described the International Criminal Court as "a corrupt and politicized court," accusing it of overstepping its authority.
