Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced the expected sanctions at a news conference in Washington on Wednesday, according to international media outlets.
America’s National Public Radio (NPR) reported that Pompeo slammed the ICC as a thoroughly broken and corrupt institution. "We will not tolerate its illegitimate attempts to subject Americans to its jurisdiction."
The sanctions are slapped at Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda and the court's head of jurisdiction Phakiso Mochochoko, who were put on Treasury Department's "Specially Designated Nationals" list.
