U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced new plans for the United States to “systematically disable” the International Criminal Court “brick by brick.” On Monday, Rubio published an opinion piece in The Wall Street Journal and posted a short video attacking the tribunal in The Hague.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio: “The ICC and its friends are waging a war against our country, not with bullets or missiles, but with statutes and compacts and the force of so-called international law.”
Last year, the Trump administration imposed sweeping economic and travel sanctions on ICC judges and prosecutors after the court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for committing war crimes in Gaza.
