The ICC is an international criminal court, based in The Hague, Netherlands. Trump gets f*ck all to say about "dismantling it." He's more worried about how the ICC will be used against HIM, once he's no longer president.
Isn't that because its practically the only court that'd ever actually find justice over these bastards?
Nah the ICC never goes afer the USA. But they went after Israel which is a cardinal sin in the West.
Without the US, there is no Israel, ergo, Israel is the US.
They all seem to sound like new yorkers anyway
Which bastards? The ICC has only ever been able to prosecute Africans.
Trump hates the ICC because its the only thing that could apply justice to him and his ilk now. Which is why the americans have been so eager to threaten bombing a fucking court.
Absolute terrorist nation.
Why would she do this? Currying favour with the USA?
This in particular doesn't seem very indicative since ICC was created as US bludgeon against designated enemy states and never went to accuse any of US or their vassals of any of the multitude of blatant crimes against humanity they commit. And the accusations against Netanyahu are not only a fig leaf blaming him personally for the genocidal settler project, but are also unenforcable basically.
If anything, this sudden US turning back from their tool is one of the trademark Trump gov temper tantrums caused by berserk zionism and general lack of contact with reality they are famed for.
Currying favor is a very nice term to describe it. I'd say full subservience.
the marxists keep insisting that it's a strategic retreat, but the signs like this keep suggesting to a defeat for the bolivarian revolution.
And the other team keeps ignoring that the communes are as strong as ever (and they stand with the government).
But that's not what internationl media reports on so it must not part of the bolivarian revolution, I guess.
The facts are that Venezuela began the process before Maduro was kidnapped and Delcy Rodriguez was "installed"
ICC is also still "investigating" Venezuela for resisting the 2017 coup attempt

Frankly, it would be foolish of Venezuela not to take this opportunity of Trump's own cruscade against ICC to officially withdraw from the colonial court.
Def could be that. We'll know better after Trump is gone.
I bet it'll still be unclear until we get a leftist president.
