Weaponising Non-Cooperation: The USA’s Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act (H.R. 23) and its Assault on International Criminal Justice

June 3, 2025

The ICC was established to permanently address the accountability gap for international crimes, particularly in situations where national courts are unwilling or unable to investigate or prosecute.
  • By Her Honour Judge Sedinam Awo Kwadam

Published March 6, 2025

The United States’ passage of the Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act (H.R. 23) which authorises sanctions against ICC officials involved in investigations or prosecutions of U.S. nationals or allies and restricts U.S. cooperation with the International Criminal Court (ICC), including the sharing of intelligence, logistical and financial support is a significant development with far-reaching implications for the enforcement of international criminal law and justice, as well as the credibility of the ICC.
