No US visas for ICC personnel

The Washington Post reports here on a decision by the US to deny visas to ICC personnel looking into actions of US and its allies. Excerpt:
[Secretary of State Mike] Pompeo declined to say how many ICC-related visas have been denied or name any officials affected. But he said the restrictions apply to anyone working for the court who requests or furthers an investigation into acts by the United States or its allies. 
An exemption to the new restrictions can be made for ICC employees traveling on official business to the United Nations in New York.
