U.S. plans to impose new large-scale sanctions against the ICC

The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is preparing to impose large-scale sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC) that could seriously restrict its work.

This was reported by The Wall Street Journal, citing sources.

The publication claims that the restrictions are intended to prohibit most transactions with the ICC after a transition period lasting six to seven months. Thus, the court could lose the ability to conduct operations in dollars, which would significantly limit the organization's access to the global financial system.
