WASHINGTON (AA) - The US imposed sanctions on four judges at the International Criminal Court, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Thursday.
Rubio said he designated Solomy Balungi Bossa of Uganda, Luz del Carmen Ibanez Carranza of Peru, Reine Adelaide Sophie Alapini Gansou of Benin, and Beti Hohler of Slovenia.
"These individuals directly engaged in efforts by the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute nationals of the United States or Israel, without consent from the United States or Israel.
"Neither the United States nor Israel is party to the Rome Statute," he said in a statement.
Rubio said these judges have "actively engaged in the ICC’s illegitimate and baseless actions targeting America or our close ally, Israel."
