Washington sanctions ICC after Pillay's Nobel
The United States imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court on Thursday following Justice Navi Pillay's receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2026. This move was in response to the arrest warrants issued by the Court's Prosecutor against Israeli officials, and as a protest against investigations into the actions of American soldiers in Afghanistan. The sanctions include a ban on dealings with the Court, the cutting of its resources, and restrictions on its operations, all aimed at preventing it from prosecuting Americans. Previously, Washington delayed imposing such sanctions in hopes that the Court would address its concerns, but to no avail. The Court, established in 2002 to prosecute war crimes and genocide, is not recognized by the United States.
