Hi Brian,

These lists mainly comprise of countries that are active state
sponsors of terrorism and just because someone is an ICC suspect, it
doesn't not mean that that person's country of nationality is added
the list.

The  US and the UN Security Council also maintain a separate list
which includes individuals who have been blacklisted for various
reasons, such as being suspected terrorists, impropriety or other
crimes committed against humanity or other individuals such as drug
and human trafficking as well as money laundering. This is where the
so called 'ICC' suspects may end up. But again, this will happens if
they pose any threat to international justice, or fail to cooperate
with the ICC or any other court with international jurisdiction. You
may also note that those people who end up in these lists are people
who's countries have either failed or unwilling to prosecute.

So no, Zimbabwe is not in the list, and probably will never be unless
they start to sponsor terrorist, or subvert justice in other
countries. But their leaders are in the list, for official corruption
and other activities. Same applies to travel bans. We are more likely
to see Rwanda in that list for activities in DRC that Zimbabwe.

So Kenya may not face sanctions as a country, but key people may.
