Austria strongly opposes sanctions against International Criminal Court. There is btw an easy way to avoid prosecution: by not committing war crimes or crimes against humanity #ICC #internationaljustice

[Beate Meinl-Reisinger @BMeinl]

The latest sanctions against the International Criminal Court mark a new level of escalation.
They target the world’s only permanent international criminal court, which holds those responsible for genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes to account. For survivors of these crimes and the families of those murdered, it is often the last hope for justice. The sanctions undermine the international criminal justice system established by States Parties, including Austria, and, with it, their sovereignty.
Austria strongly rejects these measures. Together with our partners, we will continue to protect the Court and its personnel.
