💨 Abstract

In 2025, the Trump administration imposed sanctions on four ICC judges investigating alleged Israeli war crimes. The judges, from Benin, Peru, Slovenia, and Uganda, face asset freezes in U.S. jurisdictions. Secretary of State Marco Rubio criticized the ICC's actions, calling them illegitimate and baseless. This move is part of broader efforts to penalize the ICC and its officials for probes targeting Israel and the U.S.
