Mike Pompeo previewed imminent action by the Trump administration aimed at countering the International Criminal Court’s investigation of alleged war crimes committed by U.S. personnel in Afghanistan
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Monday previewed imminent action by the Trump administration aimed at countering the International Criminal Court’s investigation of alleged war crimes committed by U.S. personnel in Afghanistan.on the “What the Hell Is Going On?” podcast, produced by the conservative-leaning American Enterprise Institute think tank, Pomepo said he is “very concerned” about the probe being conducted by the Hague-based tribunal.
The tribunal’s officials “think that the ICC ought to be able to haul these young men and women in,” Pomepo added. “We will never let that happen. We’re working along many fronts to prevent it from happening.” Republicans have long been skeptical of the ICC, in particular. The George W. Bush administration, for instance, rejected the tribunal altogether and worked to arrange bilateral immunity agreements with countries to shield U.S. forces from prosecution.
