Trump sanctions ICC, response follows
The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court, including a ban on dealing with it and freezing its assets, in a move aimed at stopping what it considers threats to American interests. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the United States would not allow its citizens to be tried before the court and would work to undermine its capabilities. Nevertheless, the court affirmed that its investigations and prosecutions would continue, and that the sanctions would not halt its work. These measures come after Washington called on the court to change its approach and escalated campaigns to disrupt it, while the Deputy Prosecutor of the Court criticized the sanctions, deeming them a violation of international law.
