ICC Says It Has Taken Steps to Withstand Potential US Sanctions
A deputy prosecutor said the International Criminal Court has changed its technology systems and made other arrangements to protect its operations from possible sanctions.
The International Criminal Court has taken a series of steps aimed at protecting its operations from the effects of potential sanctions imposed by the United States, according to a report citing a deputy prosecutor at the court.
The measures reportedly include changes to the court's technology systems, part of a broader effort to reduce its exposure to disruptions that sanctions could otherwise cause.
Ongoing tension with Washington
The ICC has faced friction with the US government over its investigations, and the possibility of sanctions has raised concerns among court officials about the continuity of its work.
By adjusting its technology infrastructure and other operational arrangements, the court says it aims to ensure it can continue functioning even if further sanctions are imposed, though it has not detailed the full scope of the changes made.
