A Quote by Kofi Annan

I don't share the view that the ICC is anti-African. The ICC is not putting Africa on trial. The ICC is fighting impunity and individuals who are accused of crimes.

Corruption and manipulation of the ICC by foreign intelligence services subvert the original mission and purpose of the ICC.

Robert C. O'Brien

First and foremost, the United States did not ratify the 1998 Rome Statute that founded the ICC. Successive administrations have stood by that decision and, as a result, American citizens are not subject to ICC jurisdiction.

Robert C. O'Brien

I do think the ICC has financially helped Afghanistan and Ireland a lot, but I think it's crucial that the ICC provides these Associate nations with quality coaches to work on their basics.

You have to look at cricket from a global perspective. The ICC is also looking at the BCCI for some kind of leadership, to take cricket to the next level. So the ICC is incomplete without the BCCI.

Anurag Thakur

There is no ICC anymore. It is just BCCI. It is not International Cricket Council it is International Crime Council. If you take all the cricket board Presidents am sure they are all puppets. ICC is the toothless tiger.

Arjuna Ranatunga

We say that the ICC is targeting Africans, but all of the victims in our cases in Africa are African victims.

Fatou Bensouda

The European Union remains a staunch supporter of the ICC and is committed to full co-operation on the prevention of serious crimes falling under the jurisdiction of the Court.

Federica Mogherini

It should be underscored that our goal is not, and should not, be a crusade against the ICC but a solemn call for the organisation to take Africa's concerns seriously.

Hailemariam Desalegn

Has the international criminal court avoided opening an investigation into alleged war crimes in Gaza due to political pressure. The answer is an unequivocal “no”. As prosecutor of the ICC, I reject any suggestion of this in the strongest terms.

Fatou Bensouda

I think my general view of day-night Test cricket is that there is definitely something there that the ICC can keep looking at because it moves the game forward with timing and allows more people to come and watch.

Alastair Cook

Being at the top of the ICC rankings is a matter of great pride for me.

Jasprit Bumrah

People tell me about my record in ICC events, but frankly speaking, the intent has always been the same.

Shikhar Dhawan

In the longer term we have got to learn how to bowl on flat pitches if England are to head the ICC Championship table.

Nasser Hussain

My best India v. Pakistan moment is from our first match in the ICC World T20 2007, which was a tie.

Virender Sehwag

It is rather astonishing that the United States does not play ball with the ICC, considering our country was the beacon of the idea of an international criminal court.
