WASHINGTON (AP) 鈥� President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an executive order imposing sanctions on the International Criminal Court over investigations of Israel, a close U.S. ally.
Neither the U.S. nor Israel are members of or recognize the court. Israel is a close U.S. ally and the court recently issued an arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over his actions toward Palestinians in Gaza after the Hamas attack against Israel in October 2023.
Trump鈥檚 order says the ICC鈥檚 actions set a 鈥渄angerous precedent.鈥� Sanctions include blocking ICC officials from entering the United States.
