The Trump administration has taken another step in its crusade(长期而坚定的运动) against the international criminal court by imposing sanctions on two more senior ICC officials. The growing number of sanctioned jurists(法学家、法官) – now 13 – does not change the lawless nature(无法无天的本质) of this quest.
特朗普政府又迈出了一步,对其针对国际刑事法院的运动加以推进,对另外两名国际刑事法院高级官员实施制裁。被制裁的法官人数不断增加——目前已有13人——但这并未改变这一行动的无法无天本质。
Donald Trump and his henchman(党羽、爪牙), Marco Rubio, want to make the world safe for(让世界对…安全) US and Israeli war criminals. No one should let them.
唐纳德·特朗普和他的爪牙马尔科·鲁比奥,想让世界成为美国和以色列战争罪犯的避风港。任何人都不应让他们得逞。
The latest victims of Trump’s vendetta(宿怨、长期报复) are the ICC president – its chief judge, Tomoko Akane of Japan – and Abdoulaye Seye of Senegal, a senior ICC trial lawyer, evidently(显然地) for his role advancing the prosecution of Israeli officials. Yet the real victims are not these particular individuals, but people worldwide who look to the court as one of the few avenues of recourse against unscrupulous leaders who commit mass atrocities such as fighting wars by targeting civilians.(然而,真正的受害者不是这些特定个人,而是全世界那些把该法院视为少数几个可用来追究肆无忌惮的领导人(例如通过以平民为目标来发动战争的领导人)所犯大规模暴行的途径的人们。)
特朗普报复行动的最新受害者是国际刑事法院院长——来自日本的首席法官赤根智子——以及塞内加尔的阿卜杜拉耶·塞耶,他是国际刑事法院的高级出庭律师,显然是因为他在推进起诉以色列官员方面所起的作用。然而,真正的受害者不是这些特定个人,而是全世界那些把该法院视为少数几个可用来追究肆无忌惮的领导人(例如通过以平民为目标来发动战争的领导人)所犯大规模暴行的途径的人们。
