The United States is launching a diplomatic campaign against globalism, part of which will be the systematic dismantling of the International Criminal Court, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in an article on the Substack portal.

“This is just the beginning. Using all the tools at the disposal of our government, and working side by side with every ally with whom we can find common cause, we will eliminate the ICC, brick by brick, if necessary,” he wrote.
⠀
He stressed that the United States considers this body a threat to sovereign states, since it is controlled by a network of “leftist non-governmental organizations, complacent globalists and hostile third world governments.” According to him, they are trying to usurp power, putting themselves above the US constitution and the American judicial system.
⠀
Rubio’s allies were urged not to stand aside and join forces in this campaign.

The jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court is not recognized by countries where more than half of the world’s population lives.
