Kenneth Roth(@KenRoth):"The International Criminal Court is where victims of the gravest crimes—from Gaza to Ukraine to the Philippines—can turn when their own governments will not act, and where even heads of state can be made to answer. The Trump sanctions are designed to close that door, and to punish anyone who helps keep it open."
