The full statement, presented in black serif text, reaffirms unwavering support for the International Criminal Court (ICC), strongly opposes U.S. sanctions against the Court, warns of their impact on its work, staff, and families, and pledges continued support for international justice, accountability, and the rules-based international system.Marco Rubio, mouth agape, as he announces sweeping sanctions on the ICC to try to punish them for acknowledging Bibi Netanyahu’s war crimes

The EU has always supported the Court, and the EU has options to ensure that it can continue its vital work. Protecting the ICC remains an EU priority.

Top Dutch Brussels correspondent on how the Americans have put incredible pressure on EU government leaders to ensure that they do not touch Russian assets at Euroclear. (English translation of key paragraph attached.)
Insiders say that in recent weeks the Americans have put incredible pressure on European government leaders to ensure that they do not touch Russian assets at Euroclear – not even as collateral for loans to Ukraine. Although the Europeans have started exploring the Euroclear route because Trump pulled the financial rug out from under Ukraine and they now have to take care of Ukraine's maintenance on their own, the Americans resorted to crude threats to dissuade them. Washington would push countries that have money at Euroclear (from Hungary to BRICS countries such as Saudi Arabia and Brazil) to withdraw it and even to stop using the euro as a reserve currency. The exodus from Euroclear is already underway. Washington also threatened to cut off European countries and companies from American clouds, satellite systems or access to Wall Street. Some EU countries, which saw no merit in the plan, were fine with the Americans taking such a hard line. But the fact remains: these are blatant extortion tactics by an ally that has ensured security in Europe for eighty years. Now it is throwing Europe under the bus. Compared to this, the Greek crisis was child's play.

And this is now (rightly) making international news. Well done, CDU.
Heidenau, a town in Saxony, east Germany, voted to stop laying down memorial Stolpersteine-brass paving stones that commemorate victims of the Holocaust. Since 1992 such
"stumbling stones" have been installed outside the houses of known victims across Europe. The motion was introduced by the Christian Democratic Union and the far-right Alternative for Germany party, whose co-founder once referred to Germany's Nazi past as "bird poop".
