Trump Sanctions International Criminal Court

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order imposing sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) over its investigation into the Zionist regime.

After signing this executive order, Trump claimed: The International Criminal Court is engaged in illegal and baseless actions targeting the United States and our close ally, Israel. The International Criminal Court claims jurisdiction over American individuals and some of its allies, including Israel.

He claimed: The International Criminal Court abused its authority by issuing baseless arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant. The International Criminal Court's actions against Israel and the US set a dangerous precedent.

The US President continued his claims: The actions of the International Criminal Court are malicious behavior that threatens US sovereignty and undermines national security and foreign policy. The International Criminal Court has no jurisdiction over the United States or Israel. Our country categorically opposes any action by the International Criminal Court against Israel.

Stating that we expect our allies to oppose any action the International Criminal Court takes against Israel, Trump claimed: We will impose tangible and significant consequences on those responsible for the violations of the International Criminal Court. Our actions against the International Criminal Court may include freezing property and assets and suspending the entry of its officials into our country. The entry of sanctioned officials of the International Criminal Court into the United States harms the interests of our country.

In response to this decision, the Israeli Prime Minister thanked the US President. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said: "I thank US President Donald Trump for his bold executive order on the International Criminal Court. Trump's order will defend the United States and Israel against the corrupt and anti-Semitic International Criminal Court."
