‘Non bisogna darla vinta ai bulli’: aumenta la pressione sulla UE per proteggere la ICC dalle nuove sanzioni USA - di Elena Sánchez Nicolás per EU Observer

The Trump administration seems ready to hit the International Criminal Court with new sanctions, as it seeks in its own words to “dismantle” the global tribunal – further blowing up what remains of the rule of law and international justice.

[…] The EU responded with kind words of “unwavering support,” saying that the ICC is a “cornerstone of the international criminal justice system and the global fight against impunity”.

But whether Brussels is ready to step up - and how quickly it can move - to protect the court is a new test of the EU’s rhetorical support and commitment to rule of law.
