That the Parliament expresses deep concern regarding sanctions imposed by the United States Government, through its Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, against the International Criminal Court (ICC), which were announced on 9 October 2026; notes that the Law Society of Scotland has joined a coalition of international legal organisations in condemning these measures; recognises the ICC as an independent judicial institution operating under the 1998 Rome Statute to investigate and prosecute alledged genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity; acknowledges concerns that sanctions against the Court might undermine judicial independence, the rule of law and access to justice; reaffirms the importance of international accountability and the principle that no one is above the law, and believes that international courts must be able to operate free from political interference and pressure.
