US Sanctions ICC President and Top Lawyer in Escalating Campaign
US announces new sanctions on top ICC figures
The Trump administration has imposed sanctions on International Criminal Court President Tomoko Akane and senior trial lawyer Abdoulaye Seye, accusing them of targeting US officials. This move is part of a broader effort to dismantle the ICC, which has issued warrants for Israeli leaders and investigated US personnel in Afghanistan. The sanctions include asset freezes and travel bans, drawing lawsuits from human rights groups and ICC judges.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) is a corrupt and fatally politicized supranational court that has maliciously abused its authority and exceeded its mandate.
