Mexico says it won't sign immunity pact for U.S. troops
MEXICO CITY Mexican officials say they've made it clear to Washington that they won't agree to grant U-S military special immunity from the International Criminal Court.
President Bush opposes the International Criminal Court, which started operating in 2003. His administration argues it could be used for frivolous or politically motivated prosecutions of U-S troops.
Last year, he signed legislation to cut off hundreds of (M) millions of dollars in foreign aid to countries that belong to the court but haven't signed an immunity deal with the United States.
While Mexico has signed onto the court, Assistant Foreign Secretary Geronimo Gutierrez says his country doesn't fear any repercussions over the policy. Mexico gets almost no foreign aid from the United States.Support our FIGHT AGAINST illegal immigration & Amnesty by joining our E-mail Alerts at http://eepurl.com/cktGTn
