Trump admin sanctions ICC judges

SUMMARY

The U.S. imposed sanctions on four International Criminal Court judges for their involvement in investigations into alleged U.S. war crimes in Afghanistan and an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The designated judges are Solomy Balungi Bossa, Luz del Carmen Ibanez Carranza, Reine Adelaide Sophie Alapini Gansou, and Beti Hohler.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated, “As ICC judges, these four individuals have actively engaged in the ICC’s illegitimate and baseless actions targeting America or our close ally, Israel.”

The ICC has not yet responded.
