- •Germany's allies, including US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, have threatened to dismantle the ICC "brick by brick" through sanctions and visa restrictions
BIASES
Germany's legal-centric framing: the focus is on the legitimacy and authority of the ICC rather than the local political power dynamic in New YorkPreference for institutional sources (FAZ, Deutsche Welle) over direct reactions from the German political sceneLimited coverage of the German government's own stance on a potential arrest of Netanyahu if he were to travel to Europe
