The German Foreign Minister Olaf Scholz stated on Friday that U.S. President Donald Trump made a mistake by introducing...
"The introduction of sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC) is a blow to international law," Scholz noted.
He emphasized the importance of the independence and impartiality of the ICC in its work and accused the Trump administration of attempting to "undermine the effectiveness" of the court.
It is noteworthy that the American president signed an order to block the assets of ICC judges Fatou Bensouda and members of her team, the chief investigator.
Scholz added that such a step from the U.S. "does not bode well for solving difficult issues."
