US Sanctions International Criminal Court, Faces EU and UN Criticism

The United States has imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC), with Secretary of State Marco Rubio stating the US aims to "dismantle" it over perceived threats to US citizens. This action has drawn strong condemnation from the European Union, which reaffirmed its commitment to the ICC, and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who called it a "serious blow" to international accountability efforts. The move highlights a significant rift in international legal cooperation.
