In March 2026, an International Criminal Court (ICC) judge reported that sanctions imposed by the U.S. government under the Trump administration have negatively impacted her ability to perform her judicial duties. These sanctions, implemented after the ICC issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have resulted in visa bans and financial restrictions. The judge also stated that the sanctions have limited her access to online services, including Google accounts. She believes these measures are a direct consequence of her work as an ICC judge and are hindering her ability to carry out her responsibilities. The sanctions have left her without access to bank cards and other financial tools.
