The U.S. has slapped sanctions on ICC President Tomoko Akane and prosecutor Abdoulaye Seye, citing overreach and politicization — especially in Gaza probes where host nations didn’t consent. This follows past actions against ICC officials, including those targeting Israeli figures, as the U.S. and Israel refuse to recognize the court’s jurisdiction. Senator Rubio pushes allies to exit the ICC, framing it as a threat to American sovereignty and Israel’s security. Critics, including four human rights groups, argue the sanctions block justice for war crimes victims — while the U.S. insists it’s defending national interests and preventing unwarranted investigations.
