Secretary of State Antony Blinken has denounced the chief prosecutor of the world’s top war crimes court for seeking the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
This week’s Insider Deals are so good you’ll want all of themSecretary of State Antony Blinken , at lower left, reads documents before a Senate Foreign Relations hearing to examine the President's proposed budget request for fiscal year 2025 for the Department of State, on Capitol Hill, Tuesday, May 21, 2024, in Washington.
Senate Republicans have threatened sanctions against ICC personnel over the decision, but the administration has not yet taken a stand. Blinken, however, said the administration would work with lawmakers to come up with an appropriate response, should one be needed. His comments come even as Brett McGurk, a top Middle East adviser to Biden, had indirect talks last week in Oman with Ali Bagheri Kani, who is now serving as Iran’s acting foreign minister, according to a U.S. official familiar with the sensitive talks but who was not authorized to comment publicly.
