US advises coalition to exit ICC

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Tuesday called on all member nations of the Caribbean and Latin America drug trafficking coalition to withdraw from the International Criminal Court, considering that the court undermines national sovereignty and is illegitimate. These statements followed remarks by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who vowed to dismantle the court, as part of American efforts to refuse to recognize its authority—especially in light of investigations into war crimes committed by U.S. forces in Afghanistan. This comes amid ongoing American opposition to the court, which the United States has not signed onto since its establishment, accusing it of attempting to unlawfully impose jurisdiction over military operations and personnel. The "Southern Spear" operation against drug smugglers using boats was carried out, resulting in the deaths of 221 people, amid legal criticisms regarding the legitimacy of the operation and its impact on drug control efforts in the region.
