WASHINGTON (AN) — U.S. President Donald Trump's administration made good on its threat to block the International Criminal Court from investigating Americans, revoking a U.S. travel visa for the war crimes tribunal's chief prosecutor.
The U.S. State Department said ICC chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda cannot visit the United States for any reason other than for "official U.N. purposes" because of a need to "protect our people from unjust investigation and prosecution by the international criminal court."
