Chilean stance on International Criminal Court membership

Overview

Chile has reaffirmed its commitment to the International Criminal Court (ICC) following diplomatic pressure from the United States. The tension arose after U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth urged members of the Coalition against the Cartels of the Americas (A3C) to abandon the ICC to protect national sovereignty.

Chilean Foreign Minister Francisco Pérez Mackenna stated that while all organizations can be “perfectible and improvable,” Chile remains a member. Defense Minister Fernando Barros also addressed the matter, asserting that Chile is not the “backyard” of any other nation. The Chilean government continues to maintain its stance despite calls from U.S. leadership to withdraw from the organization.
