US Ambassador Responds Sharply to Jetten: 'ICC Must Keep Hands Off the US'
Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten called for hands-off treatment of the International Criminal Court (ICC) during a speech at the UN General Assembly in New York. In response, US Ambassador Joe Popolo stated on X that the US is willing to comply only if the court refrains from targeting Americans. This exchange follows recent criticism from President Trump and Secretary of State Rubio regarding ICC arrest warrants against Israeli officials and investigations into US actions in Afghanistan. The US, not an ICC member, has imposed sanctions on those assisting ICC probes into Americans and seeks to discourage other nations from joining the court.
