> Microsoft has severed ties with the International Criminal Court because of US sanctions, forcing it to shift to alternative digital services, ICC lead counsel Geert-Jan Alexander Knoops told TASS. He said the move has made lawyers’ work more difficult and warned that the sanctions could disrupt the Court’s banking, investigations, proceedings and staff operations.
