The Trump administration is preparing sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC), according to sources familiar with the matter. The reports say the administration plans to announce the measures soon, as it escalates actions targeting the tribunal that prosecutes alleged war crimes and genocide.
The sources cited by the outlets indicate the U.S. wants the ICC to drop its arrest warrants involving Israeli leaders. They also point to the ICC’s prior probe into alleged crimes by American troops in Afghanistan. The two articles describe a broader U.S. stance of hostility toward the court, including efforts to undermine it, though the sources do not detail the full scope of the sanctions or provide official confirmation in the excerpts provided.
