Dozens of countries condemn US sanctions on International Criminal Court
A group of 48 countries has expressed “deep concern” at the United States’s recent sanctions against the International Criminal Court and condemned all threats and attacks against the tribunal’s judges and staff.
“We stand with the court and are determined to continue our full support for it so that it can continue to operate independently and effectively,” the countries said in a statement.
The statement comes after the Trump administration announced sanctions against ICC officials, naming four judges whom it accuses of taking “illegitimate and baseless actions” against the US and its allies, including Israel.
