A good moment to revisit the impact that it has on one’s life to be on a US sanctions list now that the International Criminal Court President Tomoko Akane joins the list.
Trump aligns with Putin, who opened a Russian investigation against Akane for issuing an arrest warrant for the unlawful deportation of Ukrainian children.
US sanctions now weaponized to support war criminals like Putin and Bibi

🧑⚖️ Incredible testimony by Judge Nicolas Guillou about the weaponization of US sanctions against him & 10 other magistrates.
👉 Cancelled hotel booking, even in France.
👉 Packages not delivered because French site used UPS.
👉 No bank card because Visa/Mastercard dominance.
