Germany declines Trump's ICC withdrawal call
German Foreign Minister Johann Saadie Voll expressed his rejection of U.S. President Donald Trump's call to withdraw from the International Criminal Court, reaffirming Germany's continued support for the court based in The Hague. Saadie Voll regarded the court as an essential part of a rules-based system that upholds international law and human rights. He emphasized that his country's stance is to stand by the court and that he does not understand the call for withdrawal, which he described as unclear to him. This comes amid Germany's ongoing support for the court in holding perpetrators of war crimes and crimes against humanity accountable, especially after President Trump labeled the court as "a group of people with bad intentions" and called on countries to withdraw from it.
