Donald Trump's administration announced sweeping sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, writes Bild.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that Washington would prohibit transactions with the court, restrict access to its resources, and try to significantly complicate its work. The sanctions are set to take effect in six months.

Rubio explained this decision by stating that the International Court should not have the ability to prosecute US citizens, American military personnel, and political leaders. The US has never joined the ICC and does not recognize its jurisdiction over its citizens.

The conflict between Washington and the court escalated after the issuance of an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The ICC accuses him of alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza Strip. The US also opposes the investigation into alleged crimes by American military personnel in Afghanistan.

In response to the US decision, Germany, France, Great Britain, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Canada, and Japan jointly expressed support for the independence and integrity of the ICC.

    Indrid Cold, Европе нечем заменить американский софт - к ЕС нет ни своего ИИ, ни операционных систем, ни облачных сервисов, ни поисковика нормального, ни своего аналога Амазона, Гугла, Эппл, или Майкрософта. А вот Китай в меньшей степени зависит от США в этом плане.
