> The United States has warned the Netherlands that it plans to impose “devastating” sanctions on the International Criminal Court on September 21 and urged the country to leave the organization, diplomatic sources said. The measures could affect most financial transactions with the court and potentially paralyze its operations. The Netherlands is preparing safeguards for salaries, witness payments and detention-facility security.
