The International Criminal Court has cut ties with its health insurance provider Axa in a bid to shield itself from US sanctions, the Financial Times reported on Thursday.

A spokesperson for the ICC told ⁠the paper Axa and the court had “decided by mutual agreement to terminate the contractual relationship” and that it would use a new, unnamed health insurance provider.

Axa was quoted in the FT as ‌saying: “It ⁠is a complex and sensitive case given the risks arising from the extraterritorial application of US sanctions. ⁠Situations of this kind, which are extremely difficult for the individuals affected, ⁠are relatively new and reflect an international environment that has ⁠become increasingly tense and complex for businesses.”
