Trump Demands ICC Rule Change, Threatens Sanctions
Update: 2025-12-10
Description
The Trump administration is reportedly pressuring the International Criminal Court (ICC) to alter its founding rules, aiming to shield former President Trump and his top officials from future investigations. The U.S. threatens new sanctions if the ICC doesnt comply, including dropping probes into Israeli leaders and formally ending an earlier Afghanistan probe. This move could significantly escalate the U.S. campaign against the ICC, potentially disrupting its operations and targeting ICC officials. The U.S. is not a member of the Rome Statute, which established the ICC in 2002.
