US President Donald Trump on Tuesday urged members of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to resign and condemned what he called an "out of control institution" and "an evil group of people." "I call on all nations that are members of the ICC to officially resign from this rogue institution immediately," he told the United Nations General Assembly at the UN headquarters in New York. Trump added that Washington would "never allow US service members or anyone else to be investigated or given show-trials by an anti-American tribunal with no jurisdiction over us."
