Biden admin: International Criminal Court ‘unfairly’ targeting Israel
(Worthy News) – The Biden administration opposes and is disappointed with the decision by the International Criminal Court to pursue an investigation into alleged Israeli war crimes in the Palestinian territories, State Department spokesperson Ned Price said on Wednesday.
Affirming U.S. support for Israel, Price said the ICC has “no jurisdiction over this matter,” which he said “unfairly” targets the Jewish State.
“Israel is not a party to the ICC, and it has not consented to the court’s jurisdiction and we have serious concerns about the ICC’s attempts to exercise its jurisdiction over Israeli personnel,” Price said, and echoed the U.S. view that the Palestinians do not meet the qualifications for a sovereign state required for the ICC’s involvement.
