Eleven national human rights organizations from the Global North and Global South, urge the international community to step up action to protect the International Criminal Court from attacks by the Trump Administration, following new US sanctions on ICC judges.

In letters to the European Commission and to the Hague Group, INCLO members from Africa, the Americas, Asia and Europe call on states to take stronger legal and diplomatic action against the campaign launched by the United States. New sanctions on ICC judges, combined with US pressure on states to leave the Rome Statute, represent an escalating threat to the Court and to multilateralism that must be confronted.
