Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Friday the US is barring all transactions with the International Criminal Court and told America’s allies he expects their help in reining in the “rogue” body, New York Post reports.
Rubio declared in a statement the US was moving to cripple the court’s economic reach for threatening to bring cases against American troops, border agents and politicians.
“For decades now, both Republicans and Democrats have rejected the idea that the International Criminal Court has any power to prosecute American citizens, to prosecute military servicemembers, or political leaders because America never joined the court,” Rubio said in a video posted on X.
“We don’t need that court. And we don’t want it,” he added. “But now, globalist experts that are an ocean away — they don’t care what you think — they want the International Criminal Court to do more, including the prosecution of American citizens and service members that are defending their country.
