The ICC said it would not be "deterred" by the sanctions The Trump administration has unveiled sweeping sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) in a significant acceleration of its attempt to "dismantle" what it sees as a "rogue" institution.
国际刑事法院表示,制裁不会"威慑" 特朗普政府公布了对国际刑事法院(ICC)的全面制裁,这是其试图"拆解"这个被视为"流氓"机构的重大加速。
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the measures - which include a ban on US entities making transactions with the ICC - were intended to "defend US sovereignty" and accused the court of seeking to prosecute Americans.
美国国务卿马可·鲁比奥表示,这些措施——包括禁止美国实体与国际刑事法院进行交易——旨在"捍卫美国主权",并指责法院试图起诉美国人。
The ICC said the measures were an assault on the rule of law and the foundations of the international legal order.
国际刑事法院表示,这些措施是对法治和国际法律秩序基础的攻击。
The announcement came just hours after former ICC judge Navi Pillay was awarded the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts to promote peace and international law.
这一宣布发布时,前国际刑事法院法官纳维·皮莱因其推动和平与国际法的努力获得了2026年诺贝尔和平奖。
The US has already sanctioned 17 of the ICC's judges and officials, but this move sanctions the court itself as an institution and is intended to collapse its ability to operate financially.
美国已经制裁了ICC的17名法官和官员,但此举实际上是对法院作为一个机构的制裁,旨在削弱其财务运作能力。
However, the US has provided a six month grace period before some of these latest sanctions kick in, meaning member states can keep paying for its operations - a move Washington says is to allow countries time to negotiate a "solution to address" US concerns.
然而,美国提供了六个月的宽限期,在部分最新制裁生效前,这意味着成员国可以继续支付其运营费用——华盛顿称此举是为了给各国时间谈判"解决"美国关切的方案。
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called the US decision "a serious blow to our collective pursuit of international criminal justice, of which the ICC is a key pillar".
联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯称美国的决定是"对我们共同追求国际刑事司法的严重打击,而国际刑事法院是其中的关键支柱"。
Marco Rubio said that "either the ICC will end its threats, or we will end the ICC" The UK joined Canada, Denmark, Germany, France, Italy, Japan and the Netherlands in reaffirming their "continued and unwavering support" for the ICC and said they "regret and strongly disagree with" the sanctions.
马可·鲁比奥说,"要么国际刑事法院结束威胁,要么我们就结束国际刑事法院" 英国与加拿大、丹麦、德国、法国、意大利、日本和荷兰一道,重申对国际刑事法院"持续且坚定支持",并表示"遗憾并强烈反对"制裁。
They also praised the court's staff for their work bringing "those accused of the most serious international crimes to justice", as well as supporting victims.
他们还赞扬了法院工作人员为将"被控最严重国际罪行者"绳之以法的工作,以及支持受害者。
The ICC was founded in 2002 to prosecute war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, and counts 125 countries as member states.
国际刑事法院成立于2002年,负责起诉战争罪、反人类罪和种族灭绝罪,拥有125个国家作为成员国。
Several major countries remain outside the ICC, including the US, Russia, China, India and Israel.
包括美国、俄罗斯、中国、印度和以色列在内的几个主要国家仍未加入国际刑事法院。
The Trump administration argues the ICC is run by what it calls globalists who threaten American sovereignty. It is furious over a past investigation into actions of US soldiers in Afghanistan the court has since closed and by its arrest warrants for Israeli officials including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
特朗普政府认为,国际刑事法院由他们所谓的全球主义者管理,这些人威胁着美国主权。 法院对过去对美军在阿富汗行为的调查感到愤怒,法院随后关闭,并对包括以色列总理本杰明·内塔尼亚胡在内的以色列官员发出逮捕令。
The new sanctions, however, do not say that those warrants must be withdrawn before the measures can be lifted.
然而,新制裁并未规定必须撤销这些搜查令才能解除措施。
But Rubio said Trump would not allow the ICC to prosecute Americans, adding: "Either the ICC will end its threats, or we will end the ICC." The US sanctions will stop US companies from providing goods or services to the ICC, such as banking or software.
但鲁比奥表示,特朗普不会允许国际刑事法院起诉美国人,并补充道:"要么国际刑事法院停止威胁,要么我们就结束国际刑事法院。" 美国制裁将阻止美国公司向ICC提供商品或服务,如银行或软件。
Rubio said Washington had delayed imposing the sanctions in the hope that the ICC and its member countries would address US concerns.
鲁比奥表示,华盛顿推迟实施制裁,希望国际刑事法院及其成员国能够回应美国的关切。
He said the measures had been structured to allow other countries to negotiate a possible solution.
他说,这些措施的设计是为了让其他国家能够协商可能的解决方案。
He also called on US allies that were ICC signatories, including the UK, to "rein in" the institution. The Netherlands, which hosts the court in The Hague and is also a Nato ally of the US, faces particular pressure.
他还呼吁包括英国在内的美国盟友,包括国际刑事法院,"约束"该机构。 荷兰作为海牙法院的主办国,同时也是美国的北约盟友,面临着特别大的压力。
Dutch Foreign Minister Tom Berendsen has said the sanctions would seriously affect the court's ability to function.
荷兰外交部长汤姆·贝伦森表示,制裁将严重影响法院的运作能力。
Netanyahu welcomed the sanctions, saying the ICC was "not a court" but a political body that threatened law-abiding democracies and "the very idea of national sovereignty". Among those awaiting trial in The Hague is Rodrigo Duterte, the former president of the Philippines The ICC said that the sanctions were aimed at disrupting its work and intimidating those who co-operate with it - but that it "will not be deterred".
内塔尼亚胡欢迎制裁,称国际刑事法院"不是法院",而是一个威胁守法民主国家和"国家主权理念"的政治机构。 在海牙等待审判的人中包括菲律宾前总统罗德里戈·杜特尔特 国际刑事法院表示,制裁旨在干扰其工作并恐吓合作者——但"不会被吓倒"。
It called the measures "an assault on the rule of law" and said no one should be punished for serving the cause of justice, adding: "History will judge this moment."
该组织称这些措施是"对法治的侵犯",并表示不应因服务正义事业而受到惩罚,并补充道:"历史将评判此刻。"
This showdown potentially marks the gravest crisis in the court's 24-year history.
这场对峙可能成为法院24年历史上最严重的危机。
Rather than targeting individual ICC judges and prosecutors, the US is now sanctioning the court itself.
美国现在不再针对个别ICC法官和检察官,而是对法院本身实施制裁。
The sanctions could ultimately see the ICC unable to try cases, meaning detainees awaiting trial or judgment could have to be released, according to Professor Ryan Goodman from the New York University School of Law.
纽约大学法学院的瑞安·古德曼教授表示,制裁最终可能导致国际刑事法院无法审理案件,这意味着等待审判或判决的被拘留者可能必须被释放。
Among those awaiting trial in The Hague is Rodrigo Duterte, the former president of the Philippines. The 81-year-old is accused of the extrajudicial killing of thousands during his deadly "war on drugs" between 2011 and 2019.
在海牙等待审判的人中,有菲律宾前总统罗德里戈·杜特尔特。 这位81岁的男子被指控在2011年至2019年间,在其致命的"禁毒战争"中非法杀害数千人。
Others awaiting trial or with pending appeals include former senior figures accused of war crimes in Libya, Sudan and the Central African Republic.
其他等待审判或上诉待审的还有被控在利比亚、苏丹和中非共和国犯下战争罪的前高级官员。
Goodman says that as a senator, Rubio was "out front" highlighting Duterte's alleged crimes.
古德曼说,作为参议员,鲁比奥"最前列"地揭露了杜特尔特涉嫌的罪行。
He told the BBC such a release would be "enormously damaging to the global effort towards international justice [and] towards the Philippines". "[For] the victims, it just has to be incredibly traumatic because a lot of them participate in the ICC proceedings to put themselves on the line with a hope that justice will come around," adds Goodman, a former special counsel at the US Department of Defence.
他告诉BBC,这样的发布将"对全球推动国际司法和菲律宾的努力造成巨大损害"。 美国国防部前特别律师古德曼补充说:"(对)受害者来说,这只是令人难以置信的创伤,因为他们中的很多人参与了国际刑事法院的诉讼,希望正义会到来。"
Among the carve-outs announced as part of today's sanctions are "licenses" allowing the ICC to continue "services for the operation of facilities used for the detention" of Duterte and others.
作为今天制裁的一部分宣布的分拆包括"许可证",允许国际刑事法院继续"用于拘留杜特尔特和其他人的设施的运营服务"。
However, Goodman says ultimately these detainees may have to be released "as a matter of law" if the financial sanctions mean the court cannot conduct fair trials or appeals.
然而,古德曼说,如果金融制裁意味着法院无法进行公平审判或上诉,最终这些被拘留者可能必须"作为法律问题"被释放。
