What is the International Criminal Court?

  • US President Donald Trump has authorized economic and travel sanctions against individuals involved in International Criminal Court investigations of US citizens or allies, as a protest against the ICC's arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
  • The International Criminal Court, established in 2002, prosecutes war crimes and has a budget of about 195 million euros for 2025, overseeing cases from various global regions including Ukraine and Africa.
  • The ICC has issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, accusing him of crimes including murder and persecution in the Gaza conflict, while Hamas claims the October 7 attacks were a response to Israel's actions.
  • Countries like the US, China, and Russia do not recognize the ICC, arguing it may lead to politically motivated prosecutions, while the Palestinian territories became an ICC member state in 2015.
