Report: Incoming Trump administration looking at sanctions against ICC officials

Citing sources in Washington, Kan news says the incoming Trump administration is making plans for punitive actions against the International Criminal Court over its decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant.

The unidentified sources tell Kan officials that they are looking at introducing personal sanctions against chief prosecutor Karim Khan as well as the judges who issued the warrants.

Yesterday, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for national security adviser Mike Waltz tweeted, “You can expect a strong response to the antisemitic bias of the ICC and UN come January.”
