Maybe, but what you originally said is false.
- pphysch 4y agoNo, it is not. While the spirit of the law is to protect USA personnel and not official enemies like Putin, Section 4 prohibits any explicit cooperation with the ICC. My other comment included the clause "comply with the ICC", which is forbidden. It is your comments that are misleading.

From the ICC: > Mr Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, born on 7 October 1952, President of the Russian Federation, is allegedly responsible for the war crime of unlawful deportation of population (children) and that of unlawful transfer of population (children) from occupied areas of Ukraine to the Russian Federation (under articles 8(2)(a)(vii) and 8(2)(b)(viii) of the Rome Statute).
