US Treasury sanctions the International Criminal Court

Original: мус

The US Treasury has placed the International Criminal Court on its sanctions lists, according to Interfax. The move targets the Hague-based tribunal that prosecutes war crimes and crimes against humanity, and it has already drawn attention in Russian-language media and online discussion. Sanctions of this kind typically restrict dealings with the court's officials and could complicate its investigations and cooperation with partner states.
