Report says Trump team is advancing proposed sanctions against ICC
A report says the Trump team is seeking to intensify efforts to dismantle the International Criminal Court through sanctions that would prohibit most transactions with the institution after a six- to seven-month grace period. The Wall Street Journal report cited documents it said it had reviewed.
The Trump team has stepped up efforts to dismantle the International Criminal Court, according to a report cited by NDTV. The reported sanctions would prohibit most transactions with the ICC after a grace period of six to seven months. The report said the measures were described in documents viewed by The Wall Street Journal.
The supplied material does not identify the documents, the officials involved or the legal mechanism through which the proposed sanctions would be imposed. It also does not say when the measures would take effect, which transactions would be covered by exceptions, or whether they have been formally approved. The available information therefore describes a reported sanctions proposal and its suggested timetable, but does not provide an official announcement or responses from the ICC or other governments.
