Greenlandic parliament calls for snap election for 11 March as ruling party, Siumut, proposes accelerating independence process
Here is the EU’s reaction, via our Brussels correspondent Jennifer Rankin:
A commission spokesperson said:
The EU expresses its regret regarding the US decision to impose sanctions on the International Criminal Court.
The International Criminal Court is of key importance in upholding international criminal justice and the fight against impunity. The EU is supporting the International Criminal Court and the principles set out in the Rome Statute.
The ICC condemns the issuance by the US of an Executive Order seeking to impose sanctions on its officials and harm its independent and impartial judicial work.
The Court stands firmly by its personnel and pledges to continue providing justice and hope to millions of innocent victims of atrocities across the world, in all Situations before it.
