Overview
President Trump has signed an executive order imposing sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) due to its arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, accusing it of targeting the U.S. and Israel. The sanctions involve economic and visa restrictions on ICC personnel and are supported by Netanyahu during his recent Washington visit.

Critics warn the sanctions could hinder ICC operations and discourage witnesses from testifying.
