US sanctions ICC, giving court 180 days

Original: # US -Sanktionen gegen # Strafgerichtshof : Das # Weltgericht lahmlegen, aber nicht sofort. Die US-Regierung setzt dem #

The US government has imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court, giving the institution a deadline of 180 days before it moves to 'put an end' to it. The State Department announced the measures on 9 August. Commentators are asking how the EU will respond to what critics see as an attempt to paralyse the world court, though the sanctions take full effect only after the deadline.

Why now: The US sanctions against the ICC and the ultimatum to the court are raising questions about the EU's response and the future of international justice.
