EU rewards International Criminal Court punished by Trump with human rights prize

The European Parliament awarded a prize to support the ICC, which prosecutes war crimes and genocide. The court faces pressure from U.S. sanctions, as Trump targets its staff. Most EU and NATO countries are ICC members, excluding the U.S. and Turkey. Earlier, the ICC received recognition when Navi Pillay won the Nobel Peace Prize. The Sakharov Prize, named after dissident Andrei Sakharov, honors those advocating for human rights since 1989.
