EU opts for diplomacy over blocking statute to counter US ICC sanctions
EUobserver·EU · US·1 day ago
The EU is considering a blocking regulation to protect the International Criminal Court from US sanctions, following new US measures against the court. This marks a direct transatlantic clash over international justice, with the EU seeking to neutralize extraterritorial US penalties. The regulation's scope and timing remain uncertain, but its adoption would signal a firm EU stance against US pressure on the ICC.
